Letter to Little: 6 months old

My dear Ellery,

Six months ago, we were meeting for the very first time. I was holding your soft and sweet body close to mine and inviting you to experience this life with us, as a family. You nursed, you cried, you slept. You were a newborn, innocent and delicate.

To watch you grow everyday is something so special. A miracle that can only be understood when you're a parent yourself. Watching you learn and reach new milestones have been some of the best times in my life.

In the past month you have practiced your rolling non-stop and you can sit unassisted. You have a giant smile and two bottom teeth to accompany it.   Your interest in everything is increasing daily and you show it by reaching. You reach for my face, my food, your toys, and anything else in your line of vision. 

Your daddy and I often find ourselves just siting and staring in awe of the personality you are becoming. Your cute, happy noises and your chubby thighs keep smiles on our faces and a glow in our hearts. 

You are our sweet love, and we are thankful everyday for the blessing of you.  

Love upon love,
  
     Mommy
