A Love Letter for my Love Bug

This girl.

She steals hearts. I knew before she was conceived that she would be my feisty one. But I never knew that such a feisty girl could be equally loving. She has given me more than I deserve. Redemption. Forgiveness. And endless cuddles.

Oh my, the cuddles. From the time she was an itty baby, she was such a cuddler (which was quite a change from Zee, who was quite the porcupine).



When Maggie was just days old, I brought her into the tub with me. It was like she was meant for the water. She laid in my lap, reveling in the warm water. It was her paradise, warmth and milk and Mommy. A few months later, we started bringing her in the shower with us. She loved to feel the warm water rain down on her. She would lie her head on our chests and just stay there, perfectly content.

My sweet girl is coming up on three years old. Three! Where have the years gone? A blink of an eye ago, she was just my itty bitty, giving her feisty smiles, challenging us with her eyes.

She is still so cuddly though, even while challenging us. Our koala bear.
