Took a shower with my Lulu.

Today, i took a very much needed shower but i had one special little one with me, Lulu.
While sitting there and watching her have fun splashing and laughing i felt a bit sad. why??? because i thought if my Foo and our bath times. there were several of them. pretty much every day and this is about my 3rd or 4th one with Lulu.
See, once you have an older child the second doesn't always get as much alone time with Mommy or Daddy. We literally had to sneak out from the basement and quietly get in the shower because if Foo figured out that we were about to take a bath she would automatically get naked and jump in the tub with us.

When i told my mom that i was pregnant she was happy for me but also worried for Lulu. At that moment i thought she was just being too dramatic and there is no way that Lulu would feel left out or feel the lack of attention from us because, well, there was no way i would let that happen.
But now, i am starting to doubt my capability of making sure my Lulu grows up with the same attention my Foo had. And how am i going to handle or accomplish that when Baby #3 comes?
Would she feel or noticed that she didn't or doesn't get enough attention?
Would she resent us for having another baby so close to her so therefore her Mommy and Daddy time is too short for her needs?
Questions that only God and time can answer.
But for now, i will try my hardest to give you all the attention you deserve my Lulu.
My always so calm child. I hope it is good enough to you.

I love you and i am sorry if you ever feel that we don't give you enough attention.

Love,
Mom
