Ne

Ne is officially one year old today, I know you all want to see pictures of her b-day party, but my sister took most of the pictures with her camera, so you will just have to be a little patient. I will post as soon as I have them, promise.

Dear Nessa girl:

You know me, I am not one to brag or talk about all the great and amazing things that happen in my life. I like to keep those moments sacred and personal.. but I have no problem letting the world know, that I am so blessed to have you as my daughter. When I was laying in the hospital bed, I was so excited that you were coming soon that I couldn't stop talking, I think most of the things I was talking about didn't make much sense. I remember that I kept telling your dad "I'm so excited! are you excited?! I'm excited!". I was dilated to an 8 1/2 and my doctor was still not there so I started laughing and I told the nurses if it was possible to change to a different doctor last minute, your dad and everybody in the room was laughing (what a silly request they probably thought), there I was cracking up jokes left and right and I was in pain at the same time, you were coming out soon and the doctor was not with me. Of course, he did get there in time and on my last push I told him "I can't push any more!" and he said: "well the baby is already out!" You were so tiny, just a little over 6pounds, just a small little pea. Your dad was beyond proud when he first held you. You are his little princess.

Ne, I don't wear high heels very often, and I am not super girly, and sometimes I don't do my make up everyday, I feel comfortable just putting my hair up and jumping and dancing with you and your brother. But when you get older and if you like wearing heels, and want to be super girly, I will be right with you, shopping and doing all the girly things you want to do. You are my baby girl, and I know we will always be close. We might have disagreements in the future because we are both girls living in the same roof and its bound to happen... we might argue about who's red nail polish it really belongs to.. but that will never change how much I love you. Me and you are going to be best friends for all eternity. Happy 1st birthday little one.

Love, Mami.
