Maggie has been such a blessing to us. We were not planning on her, but we can't imagine our family without her. She really does belong in this crazy family.
She has such a calm, sweet personality. We love watching her react to the hugs, kisses, holding, ooohing, and aahhing, etc. She loves to be held and talked to. She is certainly happiest when she is not left alone. And, thankfully, she is much happier when there is some noise around her than when it is quiet. We all love her so much and melt when she smiles at us or tries to talk to us. It is amazing to discover that the space in your heart that you didn't even realize was empty fills up to overflowing! I love being a mom and can't wait for what life has in store for our family!
We were lucky enough to have had lots of friends and family come to share this day with us. It was special and Nick did a fantastic job giving her the blessing. He always does. We had one of those moments after he came and sat down. He turned to me - a little teary - and said, "That's the last one." There is something so sweet about these little ones and it is a little sad to think that we won't have another one to do this with again. Having said that, there is something really great about knowing that we are really living the next stage of life as we now move from giving them life to helping them live life. It is fun to be parents and we look forward to watching them all grow and become the people they will become!! Life is good!!
Here are a few of the pictures from Maggie's blessing:
