To my son-
Happy 1 month birthday, beautiful boy. In the last month I have grown to love you more and more each day and am so happy to be a mother,especially your mother. I love laying next to you at night as we fall asleep listening to the relaxing noises your bed plays. I love waking up in the morning with you and laying there half asleep listening to you talk as you stare up at the ceiling fan. I love when you fall asleep in my arms. I love that you have started to look for me when you hear my voice in the room and I'm not the one holding you. I love how you are holding your little head up as if you were 3 months old and ready to learn how to sit. I love changing your diaper and hearing your screams as if the world was coming to an end. I love having to change your diaper fast so as to avoid getting peed on which you have done to me several times in the last 30 days (at least 6-7 times). I love your smell even after you've just spit up all over yourself and me. I love hearing all your noises from your coos to your burps to your gas to your cries. I love looking into your innocent eyes. I love when you grab on to my shirt, to my hand, as if you're saying you don't want to let go of me either. I love kissing you and hugging you. I love those cute little smiles that appear as you are drifting off to sleep. I love those little crossed eyes that are trying so hard to focus on the world around you. I love our bond over food, even when you suck like it's the last meal you'll ever have. I love when you spit up and it goes all over my clothes or when you pee on my pj's at 3:00am, or when I get a little poop on my hand when I'm changing your diaper. I love how when I go to kiss you on you cheek you open your mouth like a little baby bird waiting for his mother to give him food. I love how much I love you. I love you Gabriel and am so happy to be your mother.
Love Mommy.
