Hey, Guys! Well, this is the first post, so we'll see how it goes. We have had the best day, Maelie and I just hanging out. I feel like this is the first day since she was born that I got to just sit and relax with her. Slow days let me spend more time just looking at her. The fact that the good Lord thinks that I'm fit to be given such a miracle is perhaps the second most humbling thing next to His saving me that I have ever experienced. I always knew that I would love being a Mommy, but I guess it's just one of those things that you have to experience to know the full joy of it. Just the sight of her can bring tears to my eyes. Even when she wakes me up in the middle of the night (again!) I feel like the most blessed woman. What really makes me want to cry is the realization that my Heavenly Father feels the same way and more about me. Maelie has given me a new perspective on His love - the depth of it, the pure acceptance, I can't even really put it into words. All I can do is praise Him!
