I can't believe it's been a year since we found out we were pregnant! One year ago today we got a BFP and tried so hard to keep it quiet... now we get to enjoy our little Marlow on this wonderful holiday to honor all the great daddys in our lives.
We had a great time making Marlow's gifts to her grandpa's!
I can vividly remember my grandpa making these for all his grandchildren. He loved spending time outside in his garden and always had a project going outdoors. As I grew, I would visit, play in the beautiful yard and place my feet in the appropriate spot. I knew my spot because all the grandchildren had their names scrawled into the cement stone. I would stand and wiggle my toes... only to find that my feet were waaay bigger and didn't seem to fit anymore. All the grandkids would take turns trying on each other's "feet" in the stepping stones to see who might be a close fit. Eventually, I even fit into my sister's since she was older than me.
I love those memories and thought how great it would be for Marlow to try that out one day. I can imagine how surprised she will be in a few years to place her "big girl" toes where her delicate baby feet once sat.
