First Easter as a Mommy. Waking up next to a sweet little face who's on the verge of some serious, "I have dirty pants and could possibly be hungry" tears and whispering excitedly, "Happy Easter sister! Think the Easter Bunny's been here?!" was fun. Seeing her full mouth smile emerge because her Mommy is talking and sounds excited, was a beautiful way to start this day.
Her first Easter. This year is cool. It's like a whole year of excitement and smiles and feeling like a kid again (only with dark circles under my eyes) because we HAVE a kid.
I love it.
We started the day playing with Parks & going to church with Grammy...spent the afternoon eating and visiting with tons of family...and ended it snuggled up at home watching The Bible (I wowed my husband by knowing that Lot's wife gets turned in to a pillar of salt for looking back).
I'd say this has been a perfect first Easter.
...being a Mom is pretty much the best job I've ever had. I know she won't remember today, but I will. And the way I see it, this first year the holidays are fantastic trial and errors for when she will remember and I REALLY want to get it right.
