Almost one

I can't believe it...a year ago I was in early labour. I cut the grass, went for a big walk and then had a midwife appointment. In a day, Abbi will be one. I know people say this but seriously, where does the time go? At times I thought I would never survive, at times I have been so overwhelmed with feelings of joy, sorrow, frustration and of course love. No one can prepare you for parenthood. It happens the day you give birth and have a helpless bundle to take care of. There are times when you feel so inadequate, and times when you feel you have none of the answers. However God has a plan and just when you think you can't take anymore, or you can't survive without sleep or adult contact, a glimmer of hope happens. Next thing you know a year has passed and you can't help but miss that helpless bundle. How remarkable it is. What a true wonderment.

Love you kiddo! You are my sunshine, that is for sure.
