My favoriate time of day is the morning (and for the past 9 1/2 months it has been very early morning). Scarlett is so happy and when I go into her room and peek into her crib, she has this huge smile on her face. As I sit here listening to her drink her bottle and find new ways to drink it (on her side, on her tummy), it has occurred to me that I won't even be here when she wakes up in the morning once I go back to work. She wakes up about 6:30 - 7:00am, I will be at my desk at 6:20am. I will only get to see her precious morning smile on the weekends. Maybe I will get a new sort of smile when I get to pick her up from daycare.
I remember the first time Scarlett smiled. OH! it was a beautiful little gummy smile. She had fallen asleep in my arms, then when she woke up, I looked down and saw this amazing look! It was the look of pure love. After I enjoyed every single moment of this beautiful little face, I called my husband and sent him this picture. It was the best birthday present I had ever received (yup, it happened on my birthday, lucky me).

I find myself watching her play. She will look up and smile, I feel every fiber of my being just busting with happiness and grateful for being a Mum. Too think, at one point in my life I never though that I would be a Mum and now I can't imagen not being one. Wouldn't even cross my mind.
