I’m somebody’s mommy.
I don’t know if I’m quite used to that yet. I have a special bond with my mom that I can’t
imagine ever having with anyone else.
Today was the first glimpse I got of what having a daughter will be like
on a sunny Saturday afternoon. For the
last 5 years, I have spent St. Patty’s weekend going out in the bars in
Chicago. We got rocked (except last year, I was preggers) and bar hopped all dressed up in green and beads. This year the boys went to the bars and
Sophia and I had a mommy/daughter day.
Today was wonderful! We were on
our own schedule and just hung out. We
went out to Oak brook mall, put the baby in the stroller and walked around
outside, stopping in the stores when one seemed interesting and carried on our
marry way. My sweet baby did so good as
the other shoppers and workers commented on her baby blues, she would flash her
pretty smile and then look at me like “mommy get me away from the lunatic
sticking their face in my stroller and breathing on me”.
I can’t wait to experience hundreds of more days like this
with my little lady. I can’t wait for
the mani/pedi dates and going to the American Girl doll store and all the other
girly things that will become special to this mommy/daughter duo. I know there will be ups and downs (lord
knows mom and I had them) but I just know we will be best friends for the rest
of our lives. I would do anything to
make that little girl smile and today I feel so lucky to be that gorgeous
little girl’s mommy.
Before Daddy went out we grabbed a quick family pic
