Mommy Cara and Baby Mikel

This was the first time I saw my baby. The first time I carried a baby. I was a new Mom and I don't really know much about babies, haven't even held one before. I was really nervous about it but my excitement overpowered everything else. This very moment was very magical to me. And I don't think any words can explain how much this moment changed and moved me.

The story behind it:
I didn't see Mikel until the 2nd day where I got up and walked all the way to the Nursery to inform the nurses that I wanted to see my little angel. Mikel was born thru C-Section so my tummy was really aching, but I just had to see him and I was willing to take all the pain to see my baby boy. That's the true essence of Motherhood, you'd give everything up, you'd sacrifice all just for your baby. And to think that this is the 1st (or 2nd) day as a mommy and already I portrayed the essence of Motherhood.

My Cutie Cousins (by Kits)

seeing their smiles brings me joy
their laughter is like music to my ears
just by catching a glimpse of them my problems go away
there is never a time that they haven't brighten my day
my baby cousins, i lovee you!
just remember im always here for all of you.


Got this from Krystle. (eldest cousin of Mikel).
So cute and thoughtful of her to write this. Thanks kits! Mikel loves you too! hehe!
