Life as a MoM...








I haven't spoken any about my lil one and mommyhood on here but as the dust clears and I sit back and reflect on the past 7months, I am glad to say I am happier than I've ever been! it's so cliche to say but I have never experienced such bliss..such joy..such pride.

My daughter has made me a stronger woman and a better person.
I had an all natural birth *insert gasp* It was the hardest thing I ever did but because of it I am more spiritually connected than any other time in my life. I thank God every day for showing me the power faith. I knew I wanted a natural birth but wasn't sure if I could do it, but I kept my faith and asked God for strength and guidance ...the outcome was the gift of life...that day will forever be etched in my memory esp. the moment we first saw her.

:: 7 months later::
as we were playing the other day, she pulled herself up to my face and grabbed it with both hands, leaned in and gave me a kiss...It's was such a simple gesture but meant so much. I marvel at how she can express affection at such a young age... I try to bottle up every special moment and photograph her every move { i even managed to get her first crawl on video} I say all this to say Life as a Mom is AWESOME!!! It's a lot of work on little to NO sleep but BY FAR the most rewarding job...

I could really go on for days about Lil Bear as my husband calls her>>> but I won't I just wanted to share with you all my thoughts on motherhood thus far.

until next time...
