Another month has come and gone, and it is so bittersweet. Bitter, because my little teeny-tiny baby isn’t so little anymore, and sweet because I am really looking forward to this month. Why you may ask? Because this month will be Scarlett’s first Christmas! Ah! One of the things I looked forward to most about becoming a mother was sharing my love for celebrating every little holiday and occasion- and Christmas is the most magical of all! So I am really going to try to embrace every single day of this 4th month, and make it the most wonderful month thus far!
