And then my heart exploded
·
She is exactly like me. Stubborn, strong, totally rotten. I know in 10 years it will take all of the prayer in the world for us not to kill each other. I know she will hate me and I know she will drive me crazy. I hope in those moments I remember what it felt like to hold her for the first time - It was the day before my 30th birthday and 12 days before we weren't sure she would survive delivery. All babies are miracles, I totally get that. But my baby girl came out kicking and screaming when it wasn't even certain that she would take a first breath. Now, 5 years later, I lose my own breath when I see her continue to kick through life. Stubborn, strong, and totally rotten!
