Lucy is the joy of my life. I can't wait for her to wake up in the morning, and then I immediately begin counting the minutes till naptime. I can't help but share her frustrations when she's throwing a tantrum in the Target parking lot because she doesn't understand why she can't just run around. In some ways I can relate. I'm sure I act much the same way when God gives me challenges I just don't understand... Of course He sees the wisdom in my trials but all I want is to throw a tantrum. I guess that's what parenting is all about... maybe it teaches us a little more about the nature of God and what He is trying to do for us.
I hope when Lucy is grown she can look back at me as her mother with forgiveness and understanding. I don't always know the best way to help her or the right thing to do but I love her always, I will be right there when she falls and I will forgive her for anything.

You are such a good mom Tamara! The one great benefit and blessing of love is that as you divide it, it multiplies so much more! Enjoy your double blessings.
Will be thinking of you for the next 2 weeks.
So sorry I can't come and help :( Know we love you!

That last photo is so cute...love your hair!
You look adorable pregnant! I'm sure you're glad it's over, though. :)
Congrats!
What a sweet post. I felt that way a lot before my second was born. But a sibling is the greatest gift you can give your child. And....I bet that you're a GREAT mom! You were such a fun roommate. In fact, I've incorporated the "one fun thing a day" philosophy into my parenting. Even if it's just scooping ice cream straight out of the box after a rotten day...
