what part of motherhood are you enjoying best these days?
My Bees are enjoying warmer days!Reading to me(6). Learning to write her name and counting down to her birthday(3). Singing to the world with the big finale. (2) Being a real little boy by being rough and fearless. (16 months) They all are teaching me to slow down and enjoy the scenery.
ReplyDeletethis is so precious. it's gotten to the point where whenever i see a baby (like i did today) i can't stop staring at them. i used to say i would never get married and i would never have children.
ReplyDeleteand now here i am, listening more and more every time my ovaries scream out at me.
and then i read posts like this and it makes me realize that i was meant to be a mom, even though i always said i never was.
