Tomorrow is my baby Sarah's 1st birthday. I have many thoughts in my mind today and honestly, feeling a little blue. I guess I can't come to terms that a year has so quickly gone by...! Still remember a year ago, I was laboring at home - in pain - but somehow managed to withstand all the contractions to get to 10cm dilation without any meds. A blink of the eye and it's a year later with Sarah in our lives. A rough start for me as a mommy of a newborn, but alas, I was able to spend quality time with Sarah before I went back to work. It was the best time ever and I still miss those days the most. Although we took tons of pictures and recorded a lot of videos of Sarah during this past year, I always feel like it's not enough and we should have taken more...she has grown so much! Is it silly of me to sometimes wish that Sarah could stay little just a tad longer? :-)
I know that I like to make myself sad by always reminiscing about the happy times in the past. But this time around, I understand that I also have so many more happy times in the future! I can't wait for Sarah to walk (steadily) so I can bring her to the beach, the zoo, Crissy Fields so she can run in the wind. I can't wait for Sarah to learn how to talk so I can hear her say the darnest things. I can't wait to see her grow up (slowly, I hope)...
