Crazy in love?... or just plain crazy?
I woke up yesterday morning to discover that Tayah had cut her first tooth. My first emotion was excitement- I immediately called Trent at work to spread the news. After hanging up the phone I realized I was kind of sad- my little girl is growing up and she's no longer going to look like a new baby!!! Then as she smiled at me I was so proud of the little bean- she grew a tooth all by herself! I can't believe how many things provoke such strong emotions in me when it comes to Tayah. Tonight, after going to Canadian Tire, Trent started saying something about this cute little girl he had seen about the same age as Tayah. Immediately I'm grilling him, "cuter than Tayah?!?!". He reassured me, "No, not cuter than Tayah." "Are you just saying that because she's your daughter?", I pressed, before realizing how silly I must have sounded. Of course there were going to be other cute babies in the world- in fact I've met a number of adorable babies in the last few months- so i don't know why this allegedly cute baby in Canadian Tire provoked such jealousy. Have I gone crazy, or is this normal mom stuff?

No, you're not crazy. I believe I called Dad at work to rave about your achievement of actually having a poop in the potty. I'm not entirely sure he shared my enthusiasm, although he put up an admirable front. You really haven't lived until the day you realize 90% of your conversations involve the bodily functions of someone smaller than a breadbox. And some day, you will again become a normal, functioning, intelligent member of society. In the meantime, you were meant to find out what absolute unconditional love is - and that is a lesson that provides joy for a lifetime. Love always, Mom
completely and utterly normal. I'm telling you nothing is crazy any more. Just crazy in love!!! I can assure you NO Canadian Tire baby could possibly be cuter than Tayah! Yay for a first tooth! I totally understand the mixed emotions although they start doing such fun things and that seems to make it worth the changes!
You are indeed crazy. Don't believe those other two people.
okay, I had to pick this one to comment on cuz I can soooo relate... it's something about daughters! I was not like that with the boys but for some reason I need him to adore Mandy and her only... jealousy is so weird - it's like our girls are an extra limb they must love...
