On Saturday, July 31st, we had Peggy's first birthday party. She actually turned one on Wednesday the 28th so we had a fun filled week of celebrations. All week, I was thinking about how fleeting childhood is. When I was a kid and my mom would always say, "It seems just like yesterday...." I now know what she means. It really does seem just like yesterday that Peggy came into this world and became a member of our family. Peg has gone from a helpless little tiny baby to a busy, high-energy toddler. Last night when Steven was rocking her to sleep, I snuck in to take a peek. Steven and I whispered to each other how big she has gotten and what a cute little person she is. I remember thinking when we came home from the hospital, "How in the %$&# am I going to do this?" I thought then at the one year mark I would be celebrating making it one year. Instead, I was thinking back to my tiny little baby and how she has changed so much this year. Steven and I have gone from a life of doing exactly what we wanted to do to being Mommy and Daddy. I must say my life is so full of joy now and though difficult at times, is better than I could have ever imagine! Anyway, Peggy, I love you more than you will ever know.I am so happy to be your mom.
