Clara is 2!!!!

Two years ago today after 14 hours of labor, an epidural that wore off, and three straight hours of pushing, Madeleine Clara was laying in my arms for the first time! God blessed me with such a wonderful gift, he knew what he was doing when he gave me Clara. She has made me a better person, changed my life in so many ways, and continues to amaze me every single day. Every single day, no matter how stressed I get, no matter how hard life can be, she does something, whether it's a look or a song, or something she says to me, she keeps me in awe daily. Being a parent is the most amazing thing ever, it's not always easy, it's usually messy, but it is the MOST amazing thing you will ever experience, and no one and nothing can prepare you for parenthood. (That is my mommyhood wisdom.) I have been blessed with the most awesome thing ever, and that is Clara.
