Being a Mommy

Is a wonderful thing and I have a millionbajillionkatrillion reasons why. Enjoy my happiness in life!

-Waking up in the morning to see that smiling face and kicking feet sticking through the side bar of the crib

-Hearing her say "DaDa" for the first time and seeing her Dads face light up with happiness and tears of joy. It's pure love!

-The feeling you get when she is finally eating carrots and potatoes like a big kid. I cried, not going to lie. She opens her mouth, chomps and spits it out when she doesn't want anymore. She is growing up too fast and it's bitter sweet.

-Cuddling for hours sleeping together on the couch all afternoon.

-Going to work with carrots on your shirt from the sneeze that had carrots in it. Impressive? Not so much.

-Smelling like lavender baby night time lotion when you go to work. It's amazing and it's a little reminder of Lennon all day long!

-The little fingers that wrap around yours when she's sleeping. She holds on so tight!

-The sweet sounds she makes when she's sleeping... Those dreams must be awesome.

-Knowing you're going to be late for work because she pooped everywhere and she needs a bath... But it's okay... She's laughing and playing in the tub and everything seems to pause so you can enjoy the moment.

-Knowing you're going to be late for work, have wet hair and no makeup. But it's okay because she wanted to cuddle and love on mamma.

-Spending you're evening in watching a movie and cuddling with your family. Priceless.

-Watching her bouncing and playing in her new toys. Her legs are finally touching the bottom!

-Brushing her curly hair... I just picture doing it when she's 5 years old and all the cute hairstyles she can have!

-Watching her grab her Daddy's face and say DaDa! Again, it's too darn cute!

-Hearing her giggle and belly laugh when we are playing

-Watching her experience things in life. New sounds, new toys, new people. She is so observant.

-Walking into day care and having her reach her arms out to me! It's amazing when your baby wants you to pick them up!

-Calling her by her name. Lennon Danielle Klepsch. It is such a powerful, meaningful name. Lennon, like my PaPa said "my little Lennon"! I will never forget that dream. Danielle, her dad picked it out to name her after him, and I love it because she really is a spitting image of him!

-Her nick-name, bug. For so many reasons is she a bug. She has 4 long hairs on her head, longer than the others. They are her antennas. :) she is small, and petite, and round like a little bug. Lady, bug is more like it. She has big "bug" eyes the prettiest blue I have ever seen. They are always big and starring right at you. We call her bug, or buggie. It's just so fitting.

-Her big blue eyes, they're beautiful.

-I tell her she is amazing every single day. She does something new everyday that amazes me. Scooting, laughing out loud, spitting her food at me on purpose when I mock her, etc.

My world revolves around this little miracle and I love her more every single day.

To my Lennon, you - are - amazing.
Love you, forever.
