When Joe and I got married. He had always known that he wanted kids and I was on the fence leaning towards no kids.

I told him he shouldn’t marry me, but he did anyway.

We talked about kids and I knew I wanted him to be a father. My entire pregnancy was nerve-wracking for me, but three years after our wedding Joe got to meet his little girl.

Being a mother was easier for me than I expected and being a father was harder than Joe thought it would be.

She’ll be two and a half next month, and she usually demands Mommy, but there is no doubt in my mind that Daddy takes up a great big place in her heart.
