Stunned at how beautiful and heartbreaking motherhood can be. Beautiful because you grow these miraculous little beings and care for them and watch them do things you never thought possible. Heartbreaking because it goes so fast. Heartbreaking because sometimes you watch them get hurt. Heartbreaking because you watch them grow, then go...
My little boy turned one. He's my baby. He's now one. He took two steps yesterday. Seriously, how is he already one??? He said "wuv you" to me last week. He's one. I can't get over that he's one.
A good friend took his one year pictures for me. She did a wonderful job. Her name is Kate. You may already know her. She works at the Oasis Cafe at the Sunrise Medical Clinic. If you don't know her, go meet her. She's a good person to know and she takes great pictures! Here's proof:
As I write this, I have a two year old little girl passed out sleeping next to me in my bed. She is independent as ever, talkative, knows what she wants, and is loving getting attention (from everyone) more and more each day. Scary. My babies aren't babies. They're learning to be grown up. Time to savor everyday, slow down, and pay more attention, so that nothing is missed or lost and no regrets are to be had.
Good night--here's to finding the good stuff in life!
I want to be in all senses of the words, All. Things. Mama.
As far back as I can remember I've wanted to be a mom, not just any mom, but the mom that stays home with her kids full time. The mom who loves even when she is not loved back, who can't breathe without thinking of her kids first. The mom who loves teaching, playing, cooking, baking, laughing, and kissing owies. The mom who is ALL THINGS MAMA. My husband and I scrimp so that dream can be fulfilled. Being a mom is not part time for me. It is something that has captured my heart. All of the going ons of my life start with thoughts of my kids. My kids consume my love and my life and I allow it because, with God's help they are the essence of what makes me a mother. This is me...
