I celebrated my first official mother's day this year and I think it's my new favorite holiday, lol. We really do go through hell and back to bring babies into this world, so  Last year, we told our families I was pregnant on Mother's day. It's crazy to think how much of a difference one year can make, because Charlie was here this year and already almost 5 months old!

Charlie gave my life a whole new meaning the day you were born. She is my biggest blessing.  Entering this chapter of my life was something I often thought about. It always seemed so far away. Picturing my future husband, future kid, in our future house - but no faces to visualize yet. I imagined it would be a time where I’d reach a level of complete happiness. Sitting here writing this, looking back on everything that led me here - I really am happy. I feel complete.
