Our little Faith is 7 months old today ♥

It’s my 37th birthday today.  This year I can honestly say that I am happy with my age because this marks the very first birthday that I am a mother.  I have waited, and prayed to be a mom for so long.  During my mid-20’s to mid-30’s I have watched the years go by wondering if marriage and motherhood will ever come my way. Every birthday I would watch the numbers go up with a tinge of pain in my heart.  25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34…   I had passed up my healthiest years of child bearing.  I began dreading my birthdays…. but still tried hard to have faith and trust in my Lord.

Today is a day of celebration!  I am a new MOMMY, and it’s my BIRTHDAY!  Yay!  And my baby girl is a healthy, happy 7 month old on this very special February 3rd!  I am blessed with the most loving husband I could ever ask for, and the most precious little girl the Lord has placed in my arms.

Faith is growing like a weed!  Her thirst for exploring and learning new things never stops.  She has a new-found love of the piano, too :)

Today is a GREAT DAY !

Motherhood.  The best gift I could ever hope for ♥
