Worlds Greatest Job: Motherhood!

On July 17, 2007, Olivia Saige was born! I was absolutely out of this worlds with happiness the first time I heard her cry, and 3 years later being able to hear her cry makes me the happiest. Olivia came into this world  13 days early and weighing nine pounds and three ounces. Olivia was 20 1/2 inches long. The hospital stay was a short 32 hours or less. Olivia was doing so good and scoring so high on all her test.

Needless to say, I had a great delivery but stayed sich the entire time I was pregnant. Not only did I have the all day sickness, Olivia had ran out of room to grow so therefore, she was pushing on my organs. Olivia had pushed my gallbladder up and tissue began growing over it, and eights weeks after delivery I was wheeled into surgery to remove my gallbladder.

Olivia was growing so fast and catching on to things fast as well. Olivia was a big eater and tried to do everything on her own. July 17, 2008, Olivia turned one years old. The year 2008 was a rough year for me, and I thank God everyday Olivia is to young to remember anything. May 2008, Olivia's father walked out on us and hadn't seen him since.

Olivia and I made it through 2008 just fine. Before we knew it, 2009 snuck up on us and Olivia was turning two years old. August 2009, we decided Olivia needed to be put in day care so she can interact with more kids and give her NeNe a break. Olivia loved school and was way ahead of her class mates, but was still learning more things everyday. She is such a blessing to have and always makes me smile no matter how mad she makes me. My mom always told me when Olivia was just a few months old that I was going to have my hands full, and boy was she right. Olivia is my little drama queen.

 

Now, I have the smartest, wittiest, and the sweetest drama queen you will ever meet. Olivia turned three years old on July 17, 2010. She is now in K-3 and teaching me new things everyday. Olivia is definitely a little diva! Olivia is always singing and dancing whenever she hears music. On days that I feel that I am at my lowest, Olivia brings me back to my highest level and makes me smile and laugh. I could not imagine my life without her in it. Olivia has given me the best job and title in the world. I think being a mother is the best gift anyone can have. There are hard times in parenting but I always look to our awesome God we serve and ask for guidance. Mommy loves you Olivia Saige.
