One year ago today, I headed over to Northwestern Memorial Hospital full of uncertainty. I already had a sweet, beautiful little boy in Mac and was nervous about how I could ever possibly love another baby as much as I loved him.
And then came Paige. And in a single moment, all my fear and anxiety went out the window and were replaced with the most amazing feeling of love. On our wedding day, Father Dan, our priest, explained how if we did things right, we'd be able to feel the grace of God in our midst. The first time I held Paige, I physically felt my heart grow three sizes. And all I can think is that God was in that room, showing me what it means to love someone so much you feel like your heart could burst right out of your chest.
E.T. - I didn't realize what I was missing until you arrived. You are my little ray of sunshine on the cloudiest of days. I am the luckiest girl in the world and am so thankful every day to be your Mommy.
