THINGS I WANT TO REMEMBER ABOUT AGATHA’S FIRST CHRISTMAS NUMBER ONE: With all the stockings laid out, the only thing of interest was a wild fire and a wooden spoon, a girl after my own heart.

 

THINGS I WANT TO REMEMBER ABOUT AGATHA’S FIRST CHRISTMAS NUMBER TWO: The most wonderfully terrible “cupcake” hat gifted to Agatha by my mum. We bought it in the summer at a bad bakery in an adorable little town and she held onto it for 6 months so we could get this incredible picture.

 

THINGS I WANT TO REMEMBER ABOUT AGATHA’S FIRST CHRISTMAS NUMBER THREE: The moment Agatha saw this doll she screamed and immediately smiled and hugged it. She loves other babies. It kind of made my mama heart melt in a big way.

 

THINGS I WANT TO REMEMBER ABOUT AGATHA’S FIRST CHRISTMAS NUMBER FOUR: That time my big brother taught her to roll with the big boys.

 

THINGS I WANT TO REMEMBER ABOUT AGATHA’S FIRST CHRISTMAS NUMBER FIVE: Meeting my very oldest and best friend in the universe for the very first time. They instantly fell in love.

 

THINGS I WANT TO REMEMBER ABOUT AGATHA’S FIRST CHRISTMAS NUMBER SIX: The way Agatha looked in her Little Titans leggings. She truly is a super hero and I will never let myself forget it.

 

THINGS I WANT TO REMEMBER ABOUT AGATHA’S FIRST CHRISTMAS NUMBER SEVEN: The six yawns that preceded this moment. She just took a deep breath, slumped over and fell asleep. The biggest testament to how wildly overwhelming the holidays can be. I sat in the driveway for about five minutes until Jeff came out to witness how heartbreakingly adorable this moment was.
