One Year Ago Today

Dear Ruby,

... One Year Ago Today, your feet were the size of the tip of my thumb. You had just started sleeping through the night. One year ago today, I thought that I could never feel any more love than I did at that moment. I did not know how every time you did something new, how proud I would be and how much I would love you.

One year ago today, I had no idea that I would comb your hair every night in just such a way that it curls up at your ears and makes you look like a little elf.

One year ago today, I had no idea that I would stop the car at the end of the street, just to make sure I had packed your favorite lamb and pink bunny toys.

One year ago today, we were starting to become three people into what used to be two. Today, we are a family.

One year ago today, you made me a mom!

I cannot wait to see you through another amazing year.

Love, Mom
