Wish You Were Here.

This is for everyone who has wished they could be here. To hold Libby.

To sniff her sweet "new baby" scent (aka milk).

To nom on those luscious baby cheeks.

To rub that precious baby head with the soft-as-feathers hair.

And to just generally enjoy this brief period of time where the veil is so thin and you know they're still receiving last-minute instruction.

But mostly, this post is for my mom. We miss you.

my great grandma used to say when babies smile when they sleep it is because they are remembering heaven. i like to believe it

Oh I so wish I were there. But yet- it's a really good thing I'm not. I'm really sick. No voice, terrific headache, and a very sore throat. But give that baby some smooches for me, rub your cheek on that soft little head, and nom on those cheeks for me. With every stitch I take on her blessing dress, know that I wish I were there.... love you and miss you too.

Congratulations to you! Libby is a doll! I'm amazed you're able to craft with a newborn and 4 kids around. Awesome.
BTW, I laughed so hard when I saw the EA underpants. I'm so gonna raid my husband's old Tshirts today.
