I love how Ana randomly says, “Mama? I love you!” many times throughout the day or comes to me to get some cuddles and kisses. I love how she lets me kiss her as much as I want, as long as I want and seems to love it just as much as I do. I love how she goes to her room and comes back with her pillow and a blanket and puts the pillow under my head and tucks me in with her favorite blanket, two of which she is very protective over and doesn’t share with anyone else but me. I love how she’s so into fixing or building things, and wanting to know how things are built everywhere we go. “Mommy? How is that floating on the top? Is it with a super strong glue?” she asks while pointing to our kitchen cabinets hanging down from the ceiling. “Mommy? How are the birds sitting on the electricity wires and don’t get electrocuted?” she asks while we’re driving. I love how she is so sensitive and “fragile” as her big sister calls her. I only need to give her the look of disapproval and that’s enough punishment for her. I love how she milks being the baby of the family as long as she can(“mommy, but I’m still the baby in the house since your baby in the tummy is not out of your belly yet!”), and wants to be carried by me or be on top of daddy’s shoulders whenever we’re out. I love how when she’s hurt or sad she wants mommy, but when she’s scared she always wants her daddy. I love how much daddy adores his little daughter, and I can just tell she melts his heart to the core and how much he finds her completely adorable. She sure got him wrapped around her little finger.
Ariana, mommy loves you, daddy loves you, Adi loves you, Achilles loves you, and this baby in my belly loves you so very much. Our family wouldn’t be complete without you, thank you for being born into our family. Mommy loves you more and more everyday and nothing will ever change that. You have all my love, and all my heart. I am your mama forever.
