I ♥ Ah-Dah!

Yesterday when I got home from work Duane and I were having a conversation as I held Aidynn on my lap.

"She keeps saying 'Ah-Dah' and it's not 'Dah-Dee', I can't figure it out." he told me.

"Aidynn, are you saying 'Ah-Dah'? What is that baby? What is 'Ah-Dah' Aidynn?"

… ….. ……. ……!

It hit me: "AIDYNN! *laugh* She's trying to say Aidynn!"

Aidynn: "Ah-Dah" *grins*

Yes, my baby is a genius. *laughs* And so beautiful! Both Duane and I just stare at her sometimes in amazement. She brings so much joy into our lives. Everyday she reminds me of the meaning of the word 'BLISS', and last night when I looked at her, again I could hardly believe that she was ours.

Sometimes I feel a little silly getting so excited over the little things that she does, but then I remember – it's because I am her Mommy. I know that no one will ever love her the way I do.

Looking back now, I can say that I am actually both happy and grateful that I had no choice but to wait so long to meet her and have her in my life. After some time taken to reflect on it, I believe that there is a certain appreciation for children, that is only felt by those mothers who plan for them and there is a delay in those plans.

Every day, I pick her up and hug her; and I sigh because she's mine at last.

I love my Ah-Dah.
