To my little bug - 1 month
Dear Lucy,
My little Lucy Bug, how on Earth are you already one month old? This doesn't seem possible to me. This morning as I was giving you your bottle, I couldn't help but think of where I was one month ago. You have completely changed me. My life, my heart, my dreams - they will never be the same. You are everything to both your Daddy and Me.
You are so wonderful, where do I begin. First of all, you are breath taking. I just look at you, and my heart breaks. Not in a bad way... it's just amazing how much I am bursting with love. I want to kiss you all the time, and hug you, and squeeze you. When you fall asleep and are lying beside me, I look at you and I can't even believe you are real. You are an angel. You are perfect. Words will never be able to describe how much I love you.
When you are awake you are always making the craziest faces. I think you get that from your Daddy. You have the most expressive eye brows! You keep us all laughing with your funny faces. And of course everyone wants to mess with you all the time. Let sleeping baby's sleep? No way! Awake or asleep, you undergo an onslaught of kisses, tickles, and ridiculous noises every time we are around you.
Lucy, you are so incredibly snuggly!! I love the way you want to burrow into my neck when I hold you. I love the way you curl up like a little tree frog to sleep on Daddy's chest. You are in every way a "Love Bug".
You love to be naked! Oh my goodness, get that diaper off of you and you are all smiles. I enjoy so much kissing your belly and playing with your toes. You are starting to smile more regularly and I think it has to be more than gas now. You're just a happy little girl! And bath time? Ha ha, you are too funny. I think you like the water a lot and that makes me so excited to take you to the beach next summer.
And oh my goodness, you are so strong! You have been holding your head up since the second day you were in my arms. You love to look around and check things out. I cannot get over the way you follow people and sounds. You recognize voices too! Daddy's, mine, your grandparents! Grandma thinks you are way ahead of your time, but please little girl don't grow up too fast.
You have changed so much since you were born. Your hair is starting to fall out on the top of your head. You look like your balding - like George Costanza (a pop culture reference I'm sure you wont get and will someday roll your eyes at me for) or your Uncle Charlie. You have really started to fill out, your face is chubbier and I am loving the rolls on your neck and chin. But your legs are still skinny and your feet tiny tiny. Your fingers are so long, everyone comments on how you'll be a piano player. I love when you wrap your hand around my finger that honestly, I don't care what you do - piano, guitar, whatever - just as long as you continue to hold my hand.
It's so funny, little Lucy girl, but you are a riddle. Every time I feel like I have a hold of something, you change it. Every time I think I understand, the game changes. When I think of ways to describe you, it's a paradox. Giving birth to you was the most difficult and yet most empowering thing I have ever done. The weeks since have been the hardest yet most fun I've ever had. You are so new to me, to this whole world, and yet I can't imagine life without you. I simultaneously mourn and celebrate your firsts, wanting this time to go by slower and yet excited to see what's to come. There are so many firsts to celebrate but I am already dreading the "lasts".
Please please please promise me two things my little love...
1. Promise me you wont grow up too fast, that you'll stay my baby for as long as possible.
2. Promise that you will never forget how much you are loved. By all your family, friends, and especially Daddy and me.
I love you forever and ever.
