I can't believe that 729 days ago I was 38 weeks and 5 days pregnant with you. I was
working the night shift in the NICU when I started feeling like I needed
to sit down and take a break. I had been having problems with my blood
pressure, so one of the nurses checked it. It was really
high, so we took it a few more times. It kept getting higher, so I
called the hospital and they told me to come in. Your daddy met me there
and my blood pressure eventually stabilized. When they were about to
let me go home, your heart rate dropped. They almost sent me in for a
stat c-section, but you brought it back up. At that moment they decided
that I wasn't going home and it was time to admit me. You decided to make mommy wait and not come until the next afternoon. I will never, ever forget that day: when my life changed so drastically and became a million times better.
It's so hard to believe that today is your last day of being one and you are turning TWO tomorrow! There's
something about the number two that doesn't make you seem like such a baby
anymore. Of course, you will always be my baby, just not as itty bitty
as you once were. You have hit so many milestones this last year, not to mention that you live in a completely different country then you did when you were first born.We even got you a few new pets: a new puppy and several fish. I love you so very much and can't wait to see what this next year has in store for you!
Love you forever and always,
Momma
