One Week Ago Today

Gratitude
  1. Our baby girl, Ava Belle, born a week ago today
  2. My husband, who is an incredible father and the strength of our team
  3. All the family and friends who send love and support for our girl- she is so loved and welcomed
  4. Skype with family far away
  5. A week of love, laughter (mostly at ourselves!), learning, living, and such exquisite presence in the newborn moments
  6. Feeling I’ve lived a lifetime in a week
  7. Ava’s perfect eyelashes
  8. Not sleeping, and surprisingly, not wanting to- each moment is so precious I want to be awake for it
  9. Letting go of the need for perfection, and finding perfection in every moment
  10. The honor of  being Ava’s mom. I love you, baby girl.
