Happy Birthday Leah

Leah,

Three years ago today you made your entrance into this world.  I went into the hospital in pain as a scared mommy-to-be.  I left the hospital in pain as a scared mommy.  It was the best day of my life.



You have changed my life for the better.  Having you with me has made me a better person.  Before you came into my life, I was lost.  I was a girl floating around looking for my meaning.  Now that you are here, I know why I am here and what my meaning is.  I am here to be your mom.  And I love it.  Every single second from the ones when we hug and cuddle and kiss to the ones where I just can't seem to get you to listen to me.  I love every second I get to spend with you.



I have watched you grow, learn to crawl, learn to walk, talk, eat big people food, and now I see you playing computer games all by yourself.  Your intelligence amazes me as well as how you have taken to music.  I look at you now, and I can see your future.  It is bright and promising, and I can not wait to see you grow up.




But some days I look at you and want you to stay little forever.  I want you to cuddle with me when we watch movies, to bring your blankie and sleep with me on the couch.  I want you to jump up when you hear the door and race to greet me with the biggest hug ever.


I closed my eyes and you turned 1 --
I opened them again to see you turn 2 --
and now today, you turn 3

Happy Birthday to my Leah boo.  You are one amazing daughter and big sister.  I can not wait to see you grow up and conquer anything you set your heart too.  I can not wait to see what God has in plan for you!

I love you,
Mommy
