I've Loved You from the Start

“I could feel Tabitha’s heartbeat as a mama bursting from these pages. It’s the message we as mothers ache to give our children—that their worth is found simply in who they are, not in what they do or achieve. Knowing she created this while carrying the love and wonder of her own beautiful boy in every word and brushstroke makes it all the more meaningful.”
—Kinsey Thurlow, Creator of Playing Homeschool

“From children’s book author and watercolor artist Tabitha Paige, I’ve Loved You from the Start is full of charming rhymes and beautiful illustrations perfect for families and young children.”

“Each time I read a Tabitha Paige book, I am convinced it’s my favorite. This one is no exception. In fact, I’ve Loved You from the Start is the perfect gift for every baby shower. It gently captures one of the most powerful truths a child can ever know: You were deeply loved long before you took your first breath, and you will always be unconditionally loved. This is more than a children’s book. It’s a keepsake every growing family will treasure, giving children words they’ll carry in their hearts for years to come. It’s the kind of book that becomes part of a family’s story and the one you’ll reach for at every nap and every bedtime.”
