I have learned what "true love" truly is. True Love is being a Mommy.

It is the tears in your eyes watching her sleep and knowing she truly is an angel
It is the unstoppable feeling of amazement that she really is yours!
It is the look in her eyes and the smile on her face looking at momma waking up in the morning
It is the best slobbery kiss you'll ever have
It is the feeling of utter heartbreak to see her cry
It is talking about her nonstop, even on a special date alone with Daddy
It is adoring chubby thighs & fingers and dimply knees & elbows
It is feeling like it has been forever since you have seen her and you miss her already, after just an hour nap
It is sobbing just thinking about her growing up
It is knowing that you'll always love her no matter what
It is the deep happiness you feel just looking at her smile
It is the feeling that you can't believe she'll be one in less than 4 months, yet you can't imagine what your life was like without her
It is real, and it is forever unconditional
I have a love that is so pure, so real and so beautiful
I love you, Emily Jane, and that is forever~
