I have tried to start blogs in the past and like many of my "bright ideas" they have fallen flat. This time I promise to put effort behind it and chronicle our life together as a family. Since you are already 7 months I have a lot to catch you up on...
I will first start off with why I decided that today was the day that I would get my mom act together and start keeping better track of our life together. Today was Easter, and you will soon find out that we celebrate the commercial end of holidays verses the religious side, but most importantly we always celebrate family. The problem with today is that we were missing one very important element to our family. It was the first holiday dinner without your Grandpa Milks and I must admit it was really hard for me. It has only been 2 months since your Grandpa passed away and only 4 months since we found out he was really sick. My father was one of the first people to hold you after you were born and the look on his face when he first saw you will forever be in my heart. He was so proud to hold his grandson and was excited to grow old and watch you become the amazing person you are on your way to becoming. Unfortunately, his body has other plans, but every moment he spent with you in those first 5 months of your life were filled with so much love. I want you to know that. There may not be a ton of pictures of you and Grandpa for you to look back at, but know he loved you and instantly it seemed you loved him.
Although I am sad that you will not get to spend time with my dad, I am more sad that I cannot share how much you amaze me each day with him. Every day you are one more degree of awesome, and honestly I never knew having a child would be this rewarding. I hope this blog can relay how much my life has changed, for the better, now that you are in it.
Love Always,
Momma
