if anyone needs me, ill be curled up in a ball crying all day...and probably the next day too. I dont want my baby to be ONE!!!! i never approved of this!!! At this time exactly one year ago today, we were at the hospital hoping, waiting and praying that our sweet baby wouldnt make his grand appearance just yet. want to talk about a flood of emotions, we didnt know whether to be happy, sad, mad..we didnt know how to feel. little did we know, 10 hours later we were blessed with the most perfect baby boy i ever laid my eyes on. it happened so fast, all i remember before they took him away from me was saying, is he going to be ok? his little nose, its perfect!! but i knew he would be ok, he had his daddy by his side! The next 4 weeks were a blur. i try not to remember those hard, scary times, but they were an important part of his life. We spent manyyyyy hours in the NICU, it became our second home and the nurses and other NICU moms became family. By the second week i honestly think i could have driven there and back home with my eyes closed, thats how many trips i made in one day. Being the fighter he was, he pushed forward every single day and reminded us to be patient, we were one day closer to bringing him home! To say he is a miracle, is an understatement, he is that and so much more. Here we are one year later and you would not have a clue he was 6 weeks early. We have stayed completely healthy with not one single problem and have made it to one year of breastfeeding which was such an important goal to me. This little boy has made me who i am today and has shown me how precious life really is. I feel so lucky to be his mommy!!!! Happy 1st Birthday to our sweet little Beckham!
