Tonight was one of those nights that I could have held Madison forever. She and I had the perfect day today. Just fun and calm filled with giggles and snuggles. When rocking her to sleep tonight I just kept rocking long after I could have laid her down. I just looked at her with adoration. She is the sweetest thing that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing, and it is still amazing to me that I get the honor of being her mommy. I am so overwhelmed at how fast this really all goes. Everyone says that, but now I know what they mean. I feel so lucky that I have been able to be home this summer to witness her sitting up, crawling, and now standing up a little bit. I really do look at her sometimes in amazement that she is mine and that God chose me to her mommy. Tonight I said a little extra prayer of thanksgiving and prayed that I may do right by her, raising her to be the Godly woman that He intended. We have a big job ahead of us, so yes, I do think that I'll rock her a little longer.
