Today GeGe is down here helping out since Nana eventually had to face reality and go to work! This gave me time to go out and run some errands. I didn't really want to leave but I knew I needed to pick up some formula so off I went. While I was out I was listening to the radio and just praising God's name for my beautiful daughter.
I began to think about much I loved her and hate when she is in pain and suffering or upset. I have never loved anyone like I love her and it is amazing how it was an instant love when I first knew she was in me.
This made me think about God's love for me. He loves me with me so much love no matter what I do. He hates to see me in pain and suffering and He is always there for me, just like I will always be there for Mary Alice.
I have to be honest these last 2 weeks have been rough. I haven't gotten much sleep and I have cried many nights. Most of the days I am so tired that I don't get anything done but think about how much sleep I might get that night. Today I realized that this too will pass and I need to enjoy every moment with my precious little girl. I also realized that God is there and loves me so much and will not put me through anything that I cannot overcome. So even though I have now learned to LOVE coffee and only get about 5 hours of sleep in a 24 hour period, I am going to start cherishing all the moments I have with my daughter.

Oh yes girl, it is so hard but she'll be sleeping before you know it, promise. You'll think you aren't going to make it, but you will and you'll miss those nights when you got to rock her one day. I was telling Lindsay the other day that God makes them so cute and lovable because if they weren't we'd all go crazy!! Oh and getting out, if only for 30 minutes does a mommy good, don't forget to get away!
Welcome to motherhood my dear sister! :-) Isn't it amazing?!?
