Just a thought...

It's been about 18 months since I was married, 12 months since I found out I was pregnant, five and a half months since Isabella was born and I am still at awe at the plain and simple fact that... I am married, I carried a child in me for 37 weeks and I have a baby. I sometimes look at my adoring husband and daughter and wonder... where has the time gone. I notice the subtle wrinkles that gather on my forehead, the pooch with is now my belly (which i am trying to reclaim), and the aches and pains in my body and wonder who that person is... Don't get me wrong... I adore my husband and know no other love which I feel for my child.. so why is it that I constantly repeat the phrase to my husbands dismay "Wow, I can't believe I had a baby." or "Wow, I can't believe we're married."

I guess when you sum up all the accomplishments in your life so far.. nothing really compares to having a child. Adam once told me that the best thing that ever happened to him was me but his biggest accomplishment in life was delivering our baby... how could you not love that. I am the luckiest person, woman, and mother.
