Is it a phase?

I love my little diva. This girl keeps me on my toes... literally. I spent the first year of her life so grateful that I had this "easy" baby. Just spending the day taking care of her, all smiles, no cries. Wow, have things changed. This girl likes every ounce of attention I can give her - likes to be held, likes to be put down, likes to try to tell me what she wants (even though she doesn't even know what that is), plus she only has one word (mom) and spends the whole day, well, squawking. By the end of the day, I can hardly stand up, am exhausted, and wonder how this girl is going to fit a baby brother into her life. Regardless, I can't wait. I am so blessed to have Beatrice. She is an amazing girl and makes me so happy. How did I ever live without her? She has taught me so much about myself and what life is really about. She is going to be a wonderful big sister - I mostly think she has been spending each day trying to tell me how bored she is and how she needs him to come... NOW! :)
