The Little Things | Tiny Acts of Love

Anabelle's personality is developing and blossoming into one sassy and loving little girl. She's quick to voice her opinion, and will not back down until you really hear what she's saying. Of course, now that she knows she has an opinion, she has an opinion about everything! She knows what she wants for breakfast, what she wants to do for the day, what clothes she wears, what books she wants to read, and on and on and on. For the record, mommy's opinion doesn't count.

She is so affectionate, it overwhelms my heart every day. Every time we get in the car seat she puckers her lips and gives me a kiss. Literally every time. It's almost too much to handle. Almost.

My adoring husband bought me flowers after a rough day I had. And a piece of candy. Then he gave me a bear hug and kiss to let me know that he's here for me. Those tiny acts of love remind me why I married this man.

Before we go to bed each night, Anabelle embraces me with the sweetest hug and buries her face in my neck. After our prayers are said, she'll look up at me and shower my face in kisses. The feeling I get afterwards is indescribable. I can't believe this little girl was created just for me!
