A little letter of love - almost 4 months

To Ramona:

I should’ve written this right when I got home for the birth center, but I was in so much shock that you were even here that I couldn’t find any words to express how I was feeling.

You were just absolutely amazing when I first land eyes on you. You made me melt right away and cry and gasp for air in excitement and awe. It made me realize the magnificent character of our miraculous God that loves us.
When you first look up, I tingled and exploded inside. When we first made eye contact, I had no idea you would look so familiar and real, far above what I had imagined.

     Your tiny body on mine,
     Looking up to find, your Mother.
     How I am your Mother.
     My daughter, so calm and ready,
     To be held and loved and cuddled into this world.

My heart was filled with warmth when we touched, I cant imagine it any other
way after we met.
     Your skin against mine felt perfect.
     Nothing compared to anything I have felt.
     Your beautiful cry when you entered,
     I’ll just never forget.
     Then came your quiet, after being placed on my chest.
How content you were to meet me, I was so blessed.
Your Daddy was beside me the entire time, in amazement that you were finally here, after such a short time.

Now at 3 months I am in complete love with you. Your smell I crave when I haven’t seen you for awhile and your little coos are adorable, I hear them in my sleep. I haven’t quite come down from the cloud of birthing you cause I would do it all over again.
You have the cutest squeal that makes mommy and daddy laugh and your dancing, kicking legs are the best.
Bedtimes are great, but mornings are best of all, cause you cant help but smile, laugh and giggle all morning long.
Its like you realize it’s a whole new day and your so excited to wake up and start the day.
I am so glad God choose you to be our little girl. Someone to hold, love and cherish and bring up in this world.
It wont always be easy, with cute little poems, but we trust that He’ll continue to strengthen and encourage us.
I cant wait for all the fun things we get to do, but really and truly I just want to sit back and enjoy you.

You Rae, make our hearts happy

.  Mommy and Daddy
