I truly believe in love at first sight. It happened with my husband and it happened today with a little lady named Petunia and her mommy is my dearest girlfriend in the entire world.
Okay, her name is not Petunia but until I hear otherwise that is what I am going to call her. When Tina called me a few days ago to tell me she was having a little girl, I just started to cry. Tina has been my sister by heart for more years than I can count. We met in grade school and stayed close all these years. She has always been one of my biggest supporters, loved me when I least deserved it, my cheerleader, one of my "first" calls with good/bad/sad/amazing news, my conscience, my backbone when I felt too weak, her family is my extended family and I love Tina as much as I love my own sisters...she has been a huge part of my heart for nearly my entire life and always will be. To know that this beautiful woman is going to have another little girl to bring into our fold of girl power is pretty amazing. It is surreal actually. I wish Petunia to have a childhood friend for her entire life that has will be even close to what my Tina has been to me. And now I am crying again.
Welcome to our family, little girl, you could not have better parents and I promise to spoil you rotten. I already am loving her little "no paparazzi" pose!
Oh and your dad, Mike, is pretty great too. He just is no Tina. :)
Well, today has been a freaking fantastical day! I will post a bit more about our day in our daily pic post but right now let me show you our delish dinner.
Vegan chickpea sandwich for me and aloo curry for Troy. Mmmm. We also split a raw, vegan chocolate cake that um...was half gone before our food arrived. It was so good we could not wait till after we finished!
The sandwich was so so good but I could not finish it because it was massive! Troy informed me what I have to order next time so he can decide if he wants something different at some point in the future. I like to try a little bit of everything while he finds one thing he loves and sticks to it! Oh. Good thing :).
love,
Romy
