Felicity turned one today and my mama heart is just overflowing. 🥹💖
From her pregnancy to adventuring thru this first year, there’s so many instances that I could see first hand, God was watching over her.
So many hours of dedication are poured into a child their first year of life. The dozens of hours up at night, the tummy aches, the teething, the bumps and bruises- all these things add up.
The first year is hard. It’s also, the most rewarding.
These little humans give back so much of them to you before they’re even one. They share in your joy, your sorrow, your strength, your pain. They love every part of you with all their tiny being, knowing that you as their mom is the best thing they could have.
I love this quote by Anne Lamott. I think it wraps it all up completely.
There are places in the heart you don’t even know exist until you love a child
It’s beautiful that way God made motherhood to be the first year. The firsts for so many things and also the lasts too.
Our sweet Felicity has brought so much to our little family. The happiness she radiates to our hearts is so contagious. She truly lives up to her name.
Happy sweet one, Felicity.❤️🍓
Xoxo, Shantel
