At this time, one year ago, I'd been in labor for 25 1/2 hours and had been at the hospital for 7 1/2 hours. I had a very long and hard labor but at 10:30 p.m. all of the tears, pain, and sickness was beyond worth it when I heard my sweet baby girl's first cries! Emma decided that she wanted to see everyone when she was born, so she was a postierior birth (face up.) We couldn't have been more thrilled to have a tiny, 6 lb. 19 in. perfect baby girl!!
We finally got to go home Thursday morning, April 15th. I went straight home and began taking care of Emma. I didn't have anyone staying there to help me. It was just Steven and I. I wanted to do it myself because we'd gone through so much just to have Emma and it was important to me. Losing two babies in a row made it incredibly bittersweet to be taking Emma home healthy and perfect!! I wanted to spend all of the time with her that I could! To this day, I've spent every day of with her!! She's spent 1 night away from home and had a ball!!
To this day, Emma has been the best little girl I could've asked for! She always so happy, sweet, and is always smiling. She does have her naughty fits when she doesn't get her way. She had learned the word, NO, very quickly! Believe me, the word NO is used quite a bit with Miss Priss. She's into everything and I love it!!
Emma, Mommy loves you more than life itself!!! You mean the absolute world to me and there's nothing I wouldn't do for you!!! From the very first day, you've been an amazing baby and are quickly becoming a toddler! Thank you God for blessing us with such a sweet little angel!!! I'll never be able to say thank you enough!!! Happy 1st Birthday sweet baby girl!!! I'm sure Mommy will be crying most of the day!!!
