I cannot believe that my Jenny will be turning one in just under two weeks.
How can that be??
I love her so much!
I love all of my children, but this one…she really has my heart.
Yesterday I was holding her after her nap. She was in one of those baby moods where she wanted to get down to play and explore, but she also really wanted to be held.
We went back and forth for a while with her squirming in my arms and me not knowing if I should just put her down or continue to hold her.
So, I turned to her and said, “Jenny, do you even know what you want?”
She looked right at me and in the sweetest and most clear voice said, “Ma-ma”.
She wanted me.
Her mama.
She wanted my attention and love.
More than anything else.
And thinking about that just makes me want to hold on to her forever.
