    It’s so bittersweet to know she is a year old. It still feels like yesterday that you announced you were pregnant with little Kia . But nonetheless she is growing up with the most beautiful hearted parents. ❤️

    I heard a mom say she often tells her kid, “I’m going to miss you” because she knows who they are in this moment will be gone and will be replaced by a kid with new interests, personality, or needs. Such a bittersweet and beautiful part of parenting. 💕

    I feel like I just brought my daughter home from the hospital yesterday....and now she is 19 years old, living on her own n her 2nd year at college. I get so emotional and happy when she comes home...it fills my heart. So, enjoy each day....and each season because they are all different and special and time flies so enjoy it!

    it is honestly so beautiful how incredible you two are as parents ... just the little intentional things you guys do like writing letters for kaia to read one day and making a baby scrapbook for her is so heartwarming, because it is going to mean so much to her, and she'll cherish it for the rest of her life. i wish my parents did things like this for me, because i feel like I'm just disconnected from my own childhood, and don't have that many pictures. what a lovely family you guys have, so happy for you

    my baby girl would have turn 1 year old in march this year… sadly she died at the end of my pregnancy, she was born sleeping.
    Jess saying how she feels happy getting to see her baby girl grow and acknowledging the blessing of celebrating birthdays made my heart really warm ❤
    I hear so many people always saying they want their children to stop growing and staying little and it makes me sad.. they have no idea what they are saying and how much it hurts us loss parents.
    I wish your precious girl a happy birthday 🥰🎈

    I’ve been watching you and Gabe since the very beginning, and I’ve always known the two of you would be amazing parents one day… and now the day is here, and your girl is 1 ❤ She has no idea, at this time, that her parents have both sacrificed, and crossed oceans to be together, are the most amazing, empathetic, wonderful God loving parents she could be blessed with… but one day, she will know. Happy 1st birthday to your little girl, and congratulations to you and Gabe 🥰

She'll start to really develop her little personality and before you know it, she'll be talking your ears off, asking you sooo many questions, and just being your mini bestie. Happy Belated Birthday to you both! ❤🎉❤🎉

    Happy Birthday baby girl you are so special and such a gift 💖. May the Lord bless you today and always 🙏
    To Jess and Gabe ; It is very surreal when your first precious gift from God turns 1 .
    A child is a blessing from the Lord and it is completely normal to feel overwhelmed with joy, sadness, love, and excitement as your newborn turns into a one year old. As a stay at home mama it goes by so fast even watching every waking hour of your child !
    Just know that you are both so blessed to have the gift of being parents!! God bless your beautiful family always 🙏
    From our family to yours!

AS ALWAYS you are so beautiful throughout the entire video, but i have to say when you cut to the day on the party and your hair was pulled back, there was something about the glow in your face, ur top/dress, and your smile that was just so kind, full of beauty, and motherly!! you are an awesome momma and God shines through you. also i have to say, i never comment on videos, but i've been watching you and gabe since 2020 and i just love how you guys cherish every moment in life. it's very inspiring. love you guys! 🤍🤍

  • @Daphne9222
    @Daphne9222 Год назад +4

    I know exactly how you feel when you're crying about her growing up. I have a 19 month old. I've learned to call it "a good mommy cry" haha. It'll keep coming with the milestones, like first time in the crib, first time sleeping on her own (without rocking and things), first time in the church nursery, first time doing this and that. It's so bittersweet, because there's so much joy and pride that they're growing up strong, healthy, and happy. But agh! We want them to stay so sweet and little all the time and they don't. That's okay. I've asked other moms how to cope with the "overwhelming emotions" that come from this. As a Christian, I was reminded to look at the eternal perspective. They grow up and they're a soul entrusted to you, that you may grow them up in the fear and instruction of the Lord. Focus hard on the eternal, how you'll love and discipline and model the obedient Christian life for your daughter. Think of colossians 3:1-4, and the rest of the chapter, it tells how to live. I was also reminded that motherhood is a gift, but it's also not for my own selfish desires. I've found in not wanting my daughter to grow up, I tend to hold her back from pursuing the next milestone, like sleeping in her own room. It's driven by fear and selfishness, knowing that she will sleep better but I want her to stay with me. That's just an example. I hope that's helpful to you. Some things to consider from a mommy who's a little ahead of you :) my mistakes and learning and counsel I've gotten. Enjoy your sweet gift to the fullest, as I will enjoy mine!
