Our sweet baby girl turned two over the weekend. We were in the hospital for eight days after she was born. She had an infection and had to be treated with antibiotics through an IV. But she came out okay, although she really hates going to the doctor. She cries every time. I think she was kind of traumatized (although I'm sure daddy would disagree).
I never thought I wanted children. Being a teacher, a Godmother, and an aunt was very rewarding. In reality, I think I would have been fine, never having a child. But that is because one can't miss what they have never had. Now that I have become a mommy...I couldn't imagine myself not being one. I learned about a love that I never knew existed. There is nothing like that love. And honestly, she brings me so much joy. And even though there are hard days, I don't seem to remember them like I do the good days.
I was told two things recently. One long time friend said "I love how you've exploded into a mommy" and another said, "You have a mommy glow". Who would have ever thought! Becoming a mommy has totally transformed me and I see the world in a completely different way. And you know what? I absolutely, positively, wouldn't change it for the world. I love spending my days with her...I'm right where I'm supposed to be.
