Dear Babydaddy,
I know that it has been more difficult than we thought it would be. I know that I'm more difficult than you thought I would be. But you've been a champion. My champion, to be exact. Like when I'm tired but I just keep trying, and you pull me close and tell me that I'm such a good mom. Or when you keep baby so I can have a blissful 20 minutes alone at the grocery store. But you're especially awesome when I tell you that I feel like I don't know when I'm doing. That's when you really came through. Because you didn't commiserate, you didn't just pat me on the back or say "that's okay". You told me I was wrong. You pointed out the ways that I do know what I'm doing, the times when I do know how to take care of our Bambina. That encouragement, that affirmation, it was gold, honey. You. complete. me.
The fact that you talk about baby #2 without hesitation makes me think that you're a little bit crazy, but I'll keep you.
<3 M.
i love this!
