Four Years Ago Today…
Four years ago today…
Mommy woke up at 6:45 in the morning to get ready for work, but she felt like she had peed in the bed. She stood up and realized her water broke. (that meant it was time for you to come out of mommy’s tummy) Daddy was in the shower so I told him what happened, we called the doctor and headed to the hospital. Mommy went up to a nice room and changed into a hospital gown. The nurses put a monitor on my belly so I could hear your beautiful heartbeat. I got some medicine to make me feel better and continued to wait to meet you. You were born at 7:12 that evening. You were 6 pounds and 12 ounces, 21.5 inches long, blue eyes, hardly any hair. It was the happiest day of my life, we are so very Blessed.
I watched you learn to crawl, learn to walk, learn to talk. You first said “mama” in the bathtub when you were just 6 months old. We celebrated your 1st Birthday at home with a Winnie the Pooh party. You started walking when you were 14 months old. You helped us welcome Ellis into the world when you were 18 months old. You are such a great big sister!! I love watching you play with Ellis, help him and teach him.
We’ve had so much fun together, going to the Zoo, The Wiggles concerts, Elmo concert, Diego concert, the Aquarium, playing at the park. You celebrated your second birthday at home with Elmo. You celebrated your third birthday at the rec center with Diego. I have enjoyed watching you grow into the gorgeous, smart, witty, funny, sometimes stubborn 4 year old you are today.
Peyton, I love you with every piece of my heart, every fiber of my being. You mean the world to me and I am SO PROUD that God Blessed me with you as a daughter. I hope that you continue to enjoy your precious life and that I can always help to make it more fun, more inspiring, more challenging as you continue to grow.
Mommy loves you so very much. Happy 4th Birthday my Honey Pot!!
