We have been preparing for her to come and getting excited. We take it one day at a time for right now and absolutely are in love with the idea of starting our own family.
I hope we can carry on the traditions and great family values with our own family. We always talk about how our family will be raised and we go back and forth on how we where raised and the things we want to incorporate or the things we don't want to do. I want to be a like my mother someone who is nurturing, a sounding board when you need it, a mother who cares and has so much love for there child. I also want to be what my Mom wasn't, I want to be a little stricter, and stick with what I say when I set rules or consequences. I always wondered how my mother had a hard time doing both and now I am about to figure to out on my own. I am just grateful for the things she taught me so that I can begin my family. I know Mike will be an amazing Dad, I see him interact with our little Nephew and my nannie kid and I see how happy the simple things make him. He has such a great love for children, and knows how great they are no matter there size. He just has to get past the pooh diapers and throw up and he will be the number one Dad in the world. I figure once he sees out little daughter he is going to melt and his heart will be wrapped around that little finger. And forever will that heart be changed, I can't wait for these up coming events and challenges in our life and look forward to starting our De Rosa family +1.
