My Biggest
Three years ago today, at 3:10 PM, my littlest biggest was born.
I have so many cliche sentences rolling around in my mind right now how did we get here so quickly? where did the time go? it was like yesterday. they grow up so fast. my world is so different now that she is here.
And it is all true.
It’s hard to imagine what life was like before she was in my world. Before I knew what it was like to be a mom, and love, like this.
We have been through so much in this transition to family-hood and I feel so blessed to have such an amazing teacher in my little Olive.
She is patient, and silly, and open and observant, and cuddly and loving and playful and articulate and creative and wise.
I can’t wait to see what these next years bring to our experience of our biggest little. To see how she continues to grow into herself and experience the world with her sense of wonderment and joy. To see the kind of person she becomes and the way in which she embraces how she chooses to live within this great big world.
Happy birthday to my favorite 3 year old, miss Olive Frances. I love you so.
