Stay at home Mom

I don't know what I thought it would be like, but it is very different from anything else I've done. Mostly because I'm at home most of the day. I guess I'm surprised at how much this little guy occupies my time. Thinking about him, talking to him, feeding him, changing him, checking on him as he sleeps (or is supposedly sleeping)....

But I'm also surprised at the amount of love I feel for him. It is amazing how much pleasure I get from seeing him smile, and how much joy I get just thinking about my sweet son and seeing him look up at me. I don't know if I'll ever get used to the sleep deprivation or the incredible responsibility I feel to help this little man grow, I would have to say that so far being a mom is pretty great. I'm glad we decided to have children and start this wild ride. I love my little family!
