This is not the post full of surprises, this takes precendence

♥ Six years ago today I became Rosies Mummy. It seems forever ago to me, yet at the same time I hate to think that she is 7 already. That is typical of my mental agility, all over the place!

She was such a tiny little thing and so scared and upside down. I truly believe she thought her life was over. She grieved so hard for all that she had lost but so quickly became attached to me. I was looking back at the albums earlier and was shocked to see how she found so much comfort in me so fast. I was her go to person, even if I wasn't the right go to person, I made do. That hasn't changed one bit except now I am the right go to person.

I distinctly remember thinking because of her skinny little frame and lack of tone that she would be at least 18 months before she started walking. She proved me wrong very fast on that one as she raced to catch up. She took a little longer than some but she did it. It took much longer for her walls to come down and for her demons to be put to rest but she did that too. Now when I look at her I am so proud of all that she has overcome. She even went off to play with a friend the other day and his mum. She didn't even try to talk herself out of it. I was invited too but I knew for her she needed to go alone.

Rosie, you are amazing and I love you with all my heart. You are such a sweet and kind little soul who thinks of other people all the time. You will race down the stairs or across a park just for a kiss and then dash off again. You just cannot fathom why anybody would ever do or say anything hurtful ever and you get your feelings hurt so easily. In your eyes, life is just perfect as long as I am not far away...well guess what kiddo? I feel the same way about you.
