Kate is three weeks old today. This will sound weird to a lot of people I'm sure, but sometimes I find myself actually missing those first days in the hospital when I was so sore I could hardly walk, when my body was so spent, when everything felt so painfully vulnerable. It's because those were also the moments when Kate was brand new. I already miss that and it's only been 3 weeks. I never thought I'd say I miss something painful, but in this strange way, I guess I am saying just that. Childbirth is the strangest thing. It's a pain that also carries with it something beautiful and wonderful. Crazy stuff.
