A thousand years and 5 months...

Wow. I can not believe that my baby is already 5 months old! It seems like she just joined our little family and yet it's hard to remember life without her. Today in the car I was listening to a song by Christina Perri called "A Thousand Years" (it is my latest song addiction...listen to it below) and the words just struck me. 


    I have died everyday waiting for you
    Darling, don't be afraid  I have loved you 
    For a thousand years
    I love you for a thousand more
  
    Time stands still
    Beauty in all she is
    I will be brave
    I will not let anything 
    Take away
    What's standing in front of me
    Every hour
    Every breath has led to this. 

And while I was listening, Ella was in the back fussing because she was tired and I was thinking about everything that I needed to get done and I wanted to "fuss" because I was tired and normally I would have probably been  a wee bit stressed but I just smiled because that part of that song just captures how I feel. I feel like I have loved her forever and that every moment of my life so far has been leading up and preparing me for this. She is so loved and such a sweet happy girl. 

Honestly, what could be better than that? :)
