My sweet Reagan,
I can’t believe two years have already flown by. It seems like just yesterday I was holding your tiny little hand inside the incubator, whispering soft prayers for you. Watching your strength, fighting for your little life… that strength and fight is still in you today. Every day you amaze me with how beautiful and smart you are. You are the absolute light of my life. I can’t even remember what life was like before you but now a light shines so bright every day and that light is you. I have such big hopes for you.. I want you to do great things and be successful in whatever you choose to do. Above all else, I want you to be happy. I look at you now, watching you play with your baby dolls and I see you smile up at me and I know that you are happy. I won’t always be able to tell from a little grin on your face and a giggle if you are happy but I want you to know that my prayers and love for you will always be the same. They will never change. You will always be my little girl. My miracle. My sunshine.
You’ve started to give real, genuine hugs now. You know, the kind where you squeeze the person you’re hugging really tight. It completely melts my heart to get those little baby bear hugs from you. To hear you, very quietly, sing a little song in my ear as you hug me tight… I would be content at that moment, if time would stand still forever. Those are the moments I will cherish for as long as I live.
I wish you the happiest of birthdays, my precious girl…as well as a lifetime of happiness. Always chase your dreams and know that I will always be behind you. I love you to the moon and back, always and forever.
Love,
Your mommy
