Letter I wrote to you May 2011

8 months

Dear Lola,

I adore.

I adore the sleepy, quiet morning hush we share.

I adore sleeping nose to nose with you, your hands resting on my cheeks.

I adore our tea parties and the secrets that are whispered.

I adore watching you eat sweet potato and avocado.

I adore the curl that sits at the front of your head.

I adore waking up to realise all over again that I am your mama.

I adore when you reach your arms up to be picked up & cuddled.

I adore that if you sneeze two times it will always make you smile.

I adore your rosy cheeks.

I adore the way you look at your papa when he walks into the room.

I adore you – every little bit of you.

Your mama x

belle & boo
