My First Blog

Well this is interesting.

I have had a Live Journal, a Dead Journal, and even an online diary, but I would never have called them a Blog. This therefor, is my first blog journal. Or maybe just Blog?

In any case an introduction is needed. I am a 21 year old American who lives in England. I have a loving, caring husband, who goes by the name of Al on here and a beautiful little girl who goes by the name of Nat on here. My husband is a little younger than me, he just turned 20 this year, and I will be 22 in septemeber. Our daughter is 1 year 1 month old and so adorably cute. She has curly blonde hair and strikingly blue eyes.

At the moment however she is really sick so she's a little less adorable and cute as I've had to listen to her screams since early this morning. No matter what I did she wouldn't stop crying. That was until Daddy came home. Then the world turned 180*. Ah well, she plays favorites, what can I say? It's not as if I negelect her. Indeed most of my day is spent in constructive play. We clean together, and sing together, and I read to her as often as I can. She loves to sit on my lap while I read to her and point at the pictures saying: "Da".

What did I tell you? Daddy's girl.

Anyways, she will be really loving me in 8 months when our second child comes along. Even if she is a bit unsuspecting, my husband isn't and we both are extremely excited for another addition to the family. Having a little child is exhausting but the most rewarding thing at the same time, and I want many many more children. I know that seems like a crazy idea in this day and age, especially in the UK, but it's true! I really do want a whole house full of children! The great thing is my husband shares my enthusiasm for this, even if he doesn't always know the hard work that goes into a day with Nat. Which is fine because he does occasionally get reminders when I have to leave town (to visit family) or there was recently a time I was in the hospital for a week. That left my husband to care for our daughter all by himself. It was remarkable how caring and considerate he was to me after wards. Unfortunatly I think he's forgotten.

No to be honest I have not much to whinge about concerning my husband as he is a kind and thoughtful man. Most days he is hard at work for our family, and when he comes home he gives his all to Nat and me. Then he passes out and thats ok since right now he's sick too. :( Which makes me sad. Dealing with a sick family isn't fun! Especially when I wake up to morning sickness...(and go to bed throwing up as well...) But that is all by the by. This is my first post and this me. I love my family. I love God. And I am happy for my role as mother and wife. I look forward to many more blogs. And maybe if I'm lucky, a few friends too.
