Sugar and spice and everything nice.

{Miss Ava-Rose | 11.25.10}

I love having a baby boy...but sometimes, for the briefest of moments, I long for a baby girl.

The bows.
The pink.
The hearts and flowers and sparkles.

Those sweet moments that you can only have with a daughter talking about things like Barbies and Ramona Quimby and nail polish.  That adoring look little girls have for their mamas.  The cooking together.  The buying of the fluffy dresses for holidays.  Baby dolls and easy bake ovens and Disney Princesses...

And then I think about periods and friend-drama and braces and acne and feelings of not fitting in and hormones, oh the wild hormones...and the feeling passes.
