October 5th 2007 ...A Diva was born!

Diva being born.
Experiencing a new love for the first time<3 the kind that makes you crumble with joy inside.
This week was Mia Pia's 4th birthday (is that even real?) I think for the first time I really realized how big she actually is. She isn't even a toddler anymore Mia is a little (big )girl. All those sleepless night and first walks with first words, even potty training seemed like only yesterday. So despite all my happy/sad/excited/sad mommy tears that only a mommy could cry all at the same time (thank you hormones). I am so proud of her : )
4 year old diva<3

She has an imagination as big as the sky, she loves Jesus with all her heart. She has the boldness of a lion  and the daintiness of a love bird. She rides rainbows and sprinkles life with glitter daily lol not really but she wishes she could hahahah : )

You see mia has been my right hand man though the roughest parts of life. She is the first one to help me. She's not only my daughter but my friend. sometimes I forget through all the parenting that we can have a healthy friendship. She has been with me through my happiest moments as well. I guess my point is i love her so much and I know God literally gave me her knowing all that life would bring us together and with more still to come. She's surviving life with me as a young mommy that says a lot about how God made her : ) 

Lastly i'll share my most favorite moment with her recently. As i was slaving away at all the demands one day can bring with 2 small children. I peeked in the living room to check on her and i watched her play with her My little ponies and I watched as she set up a whole village for them and all the names she came up with and the whole story line she made up. I started to reminisce on my life as a 4 year old. I so remember playing and entering into a whole different world with my toys. Well shortly after that i heard the words "come play with me mommy" normally i answer back with " I can't right now Mia i have to finish blah blah blah" well this time i felt a prompting to say YES CAN I PLEASE! So I did and we played and played and she let me enter her whole play world. I got a chance to just forget my laundry and my mile high dishes in the sink for a moment and play with my Mia Pia. A chance to enter her world of imagination and pretend and i'll take that chance for as long as she'll let me right now. I think I learned a lesson that day to take those opportunities more often before I come out of the laundry room one day and those moments of opportunity are gone and I have no clue what she likes or pretends to be. I will take the time to play and invest in my children while i can......those dishes can wait : ) 

Happy Birthday Mia Pia Mommy loves you more than you will ever know!<3
