December 22, 2010

Dear Lucia,

I am 35 today and you are my birthday present. Today was frustrating because I was busy at work and I just wanted to be here with you. Taking care of you is the job I wish I could commit 100% of my time and energy to. I hope you know that I'm thinking of you and missing you constantly. I know that I have to be there and some days are easier than others, but I miss you so much. Spending time caring for and playing with you is the highlight of my life and is so much more fulfilling than anything I could ever imagine. I'm so sleepy so I'm sorry this must be short, but I want to cuddle with you now.

Thank you for being such a beautiful little princess! At last night's doctor visit, you were measured - 23.5" and 11lbs 6oz. You are at 50% for your growth. You at least get plenty of use out of your clothes! You aren't outgrowing things too quickly. For a big baby at birth, you are quite a little peanut now. I think probably one lb of your birthweight is in your hair. I love you. I'm so excited also to spend your first Christmas together. You make the holidays fun.

Love, mama
