Motherhood is...
Thursday, April 30, 2015
With Mother's day approaching in about a week, I've been thinking a lot about what motherhood is to me. Here are my thoughts:
Motherhood is:
- enjoying a cup of green tea every morning.....mostly cold.
- sleeping beside my son every night because he just wants my comfort.
- holding little hands as we walk up and down the stairs.
- yelling at the dog for eating my son's snack for the third time that day (although I can't blame her since it was being waved in her face).
- feeling guilty about how I handled some situations in the last 17 months.
- taking the time to be creative again.
- learning to validate the feelings of a little human.
- appreciating the unconditional love of my own parents and in-laws.
- insane sleep deprivation.
- scarfing down chocolate when little one isn't watching.
- leaving the house without diapers in the diaper bag...oops.
- kisses through the crib bars.
- constantly feeling over-touched.
- being consistent.
- the most important job I've ever had.
- learning that "I am enough".
- Hard.
What are your thoughts on motherhood right now?
