Mommy is me


I have about five minutes before Stetson wakes up so this will be short, but I felt like it was important to write!! I LOVE BEING A MOMMA! I love it, I really do. Growing up I always told people that when I grow up I want to be a mom, that's it, just a mom. I should ask my mom if I ever said anything else but I don't think I ever did. I must say it was the best choice I ever made! It dawned on me this morning as I was cleaning up the breakfast I had made for Mack (poor Mack, that doesn't happen much) and then cleaning up all of Stetson's toys strewn across the floor as he quietly took a nap in the other room. While I was doing that I realized I was happy. I thought here I am sick, cleaning up toys and food while a baby naps and I am just down right happy! It was amazing to me! This is where I am meant to be. Right here. Mommy hood rocks! Sure there are some hard times when Stetson wont sleep or when I just want to be alone for a little, but when it comes down to it, I could not have asked for a better fit. I remember thinking this about two weeks after Stetson was born. I was crazy tired but just happy all the time and I remember thinking I finally feel like I right where I was meant to be, doing just what I was meant to do.

 I'm so thankful that I have chosen this path for myself, and that I married a man who would whole heartily support me in my quest to me a mom and for my family (parents sibling and in-laws) who would cheer me on and be a sounding board and advice givers on how to improve myself, my marriage, and my parenting skills! I love where I am right now and I love being a wife, a mother, a homemaker, a daughter and a sister. I couldn't ask for more!
