To the one who made me a mama.
We’ve only got days together as just you and me (and your daddy) and I’m a mixed bag of excitement at this next chapter for our little family and grief that this current chapter is about to close.
I wonder how my heart could possibly love another little person as much as I love you, but your dad put it best when he said that it’s not a case of making room or having to ‘share’ the love but it expanding and growing.
You will always be my first little love, the one who made me a mama and showed me what unconditional love really means. You’ve been my greatest teacher in slowing down, being present, seeing the absolute joy and beauty in the little things and letting go. You’re pure magic and I’m so lucky to share this life with you and watch as the world unfolds at your feet ✨
You’re going to make the best big brother. And while the next little while we’ll have growing pains and adjustments and I might not have as much time for just you and me as we welcome our new little family member, that will in no way change the way I feel about you ❤️
In time you won’t remember life without your sibling and we’ll have twice the adventures and fun, twice the laughs, twice the joy and love, twice the craziness.
And for the next few days you’ll just have to put up with me smothering you with kisses and telling you you’re beautiful and I love you over and over.
