It amazes me that so little time has passed, yet it seems like a lifetime ago. One day it's complete chaos and unknown and the next it's " Hi hon, how was your day, mommy loves you'.
It's sureal.
Life has continued for all of us, we've learned, changed, adapted, changed - did I say that already? One day fighting for her life and the next day her and her sis flying out to see mom for Christmas. OK, well not so much 'one day to the next' but sometimes it feels like it.
It's a warm evening and I'm sitting on my deck planning the girls visit for a week in July. Not only are they coming to see mom for a week but they're going to hang out at an outdoor concert for a few days on their way home!! My two beautiful girls....
I can't even imagine what my baby went through (and still does to some extent) during all of this. She is such a vivacious, bright, funny, witty girl. Her older brother has had a lot of attention because from time to time he can be a disaster and now her older sister has this happen to her. My baby girl has been a joy to raise (not saying the others weren't) but she has made good choices, gone on to further education, works three jobs sometimes and yet everyone else gets all the attention.
She deserves more attention, and praise, for being the strong willed, independent, tenderhearted daughter and sister that she is. I wish I had a sister like her. Hug you when you need it, listen when you have shit to say, and tell you you're full of shit when you are, but at the end of the day loves you more than anything.
To my baby girls, Mommy loves you.
