Nine years ago I gave birth, to who I thought at the time, the most beautiful little girl ever. Of course nine years later, I have had to change my mind, because I added a new little girl to our lives and she is just as beautiful as the first.
Last night I was sitting all alone with Aurelia feeding her the last bottle of the evening. I just sat there watching her eat with her little eyes closed and it made my heart swell. I remembered what it was like to sit with Audrey and hold her close. There was a time when Audrey was my little snuggle partner and she had a specific time every evening that she wanted nothing to do with anyone but me. But those days have passed and as she has gotten older, she has become a Daddy's Girl. Although sometimes she still comes to me when she thinks her Dad is being "mean" haha I miss my little monkey....she is turning out to be a beautiful little lady.
For now, Aurelia is my snuggle bunny and maybe, just maybe one day I will have a little partner to stick by my side. Until then, I will enjoy all the moments we have when it is just the two of us.
