Motherhood;

Can’t believe it, I’m a mommy.

Avaïa,

Ever since I could remember I’ve wanted to be a mommy. I remember playing with baby dolls and just telling myself that one day I will be the best mom. The times that I would walk passed women & just be amazed the the creation God has given them. I feel so incredibly blessed & lucky to be able to hold and carry such a secret gift in life. This has been such a humbling journey and it came at the very perfect time in my life. I realized after my grandfather passing away that I began to slowly spiral downhill. Not in the sense that I was falling apart, but secretly I was destroying my life. I truly believe in everything happening for a reason but I feel as though my grandpa sent me a path & made me realize my end goal. He made me realize the correct path & the path I’ve wanted since I could truly ever remember.

Avaïa Rose Jimenez,

I promise to cherish every moment of you.

I promise I will teach you all the things in life that may come difficult to most.

I promise to remind of you of how truly special your grandfather was to this family and how much of an impact he made with little word.

I love you with all of my being, & I’m willing to do anything and everything to make sure you’re protected and you get everything you need.

I definitely never imagined it being this big of a journey.

I’m so grateful for you baby girl, you have already taught me so much about myself mentally and physically.

Growing up with an absent father and an abandoning mother makes me want to create the best future for you.
