I never imagined!
I never imagined I could love the sweet smell of a sweaty little body.
I never imagined I could be thrown up on and not gag.
I never imagined I could wake up 16 times in one night and still make it through the day.
I never imagined I could kiss one little face so much that I was sure I would kiss it off.
I never imagined I could get so excited over a tiny human peeing in a potty.
I never imagined I could fix the same toy so many times in one day I would do it in my sleep.
I never imagined I could fold so many tiny socks and still find more to wash.
I never imagined I could clean up so many toddler messes and still giggle at the hand sanitizer smeared in your hair.
I never imagined I could pick up so many Legos and still walk through the living room and find one with my bare foot.
I never imagined I could be so nervous watching you test for your next TaeKwonDo belt.
I never imagined I could be so proud at watching you earn that next belt.
I never imagined I could be so proud to paint a little girl’s fingernails the same color as mine.
I never imagined I could watch a little girl play with my childhood toys and get so choked up.
I never imagined I could be witness to the two most amazing little people do so many incredible things.
I never imagined loving so deeply, and wildly as I have since becoming a mom.
I never imagined all the beautiful things you two have brought into my life. The laughter, the kisses, the constant love.
I never imagined my motherhood journey being everything that it has become. Thank you for being more than I could ever have imagined.
