Worth the Wait

Many months ago my sister bought me this pink onesie that reads, "Worth the Wait". The fact that it exists reminds you how many people are waiting on their own little blessing.

In the hospital, Abby Lu was fussy and the photographer handed her to me and said to her, "I'll give you to your Mommy to calm you down." It made me teary eyed. So many times I have held everyone else's sweet babies and handed them off for comfort when they needed it. Now, I get to be the Mommy who can calm the baby like no other. No doubt, I don't want a baby that only can be held by me, but it is nice to know she recognizes my scent, touch or face and wants me sometimes.

Seriously, who could resist this fat little squished up face? Not me!
