I love days like today. Today was a day where there was nothing new to worry about. You are eating well, sleeping well, and not crying as if something is bothering you. I feel like everyday I wear an invisible backpack. There are days when there is something new I worry about like your doctor's appt next week or your liver and lungs and those worries add a new weight to my bag. But today-no new weights were added!
We've had a good day. We took a walk up to campus and met up with Dad for lunch. It felt so good to have the sun out. You haven't been able to enjoy the outdoors much due to crummy weather but today you felt what it was like to have the sun keep you warm instead of multiple layers of blankets. We then came home and took a nap together on the couch. Your dad even joined in on nap time. I loved it. Our life here is simple and that is why I will miss it so much when we move.
There are so many memories here. It is where your Dad and I met, where we graduated from college, lived for 5 years, it is where we found out you were coming into our lives, and its where we have our first memories with you. It will be fun to start another chapter in life especially now that you are in it. I hope to have another day like this tomorrow where I realize that life is simple and beautiful. That realization is up to me. We decide our own happiness, Sydney. Happiness is a choice. I have to remind myself that everyday. You make life so much easier to enjoy. I love you.
Love always, Mom
