As Steve and C were getting ready to pick up the kids at church tonight, I looked at my baby and said, "I love you!" He looked at me with his big bright smile. Then, guess what happened?

ReplyDeleteThis is such a sweet story. I love moments that make us feel like we can do anything. You deserve it, mama!
Much love from New York!
I was a godmother for the first time today. My cousin's first daughter (after 3 boys!) was baptized and it was a wonderful time. I love watching all my family's kids get big and develop personalities, say their first meaningful words. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Sara! What fun for you to be an aunt and a godmother. What lucky kids to have an aunt who loves them so much and is so involved. My god-daughter has her first communion this weekend. And, I'll be there flashing my proud godmother peacock feathers. I imagine you will do the same for all your god-daughter's important events. Enjoy the special relationship!
