Two years ago today I checked in to the hospital to be rehydrated from the stomach bug...and checked out 48 hours later with my precious Tillie girl! And oh...what a joy she is to have for a daughter! She has taught me more in these two short years about appreciating and embracing each and every unique quirk that makes us who we are. I went into child # 2 thinking it was going to be a re-run of Amelia and boy was I wrong. Amazing what it takes to teach us some of life's simplest lessons... In our case it has been, duct-taping diapers, crib tents and poison control calls....none of which we had the joy of experiencing with Amelia. BUT, it has also been filled with uncontrollable laughs, mind-blowing tales, heart-melting moments and the sweetest hugs one can encounter on this side of the Mason-Dixon. Tillie is spirited and happy...full-throttle but a fun-haver....she loves people and loves to entertain...she is tender and loving...and, best of all, she is mine (for a while, at least)! Words cannot describe how thankful and humbled I am that God chose us to parent this little life...
