I was tagged by the lovely Kelly at Yes Peas Mummy for this writing challenge. And we all know what a challenge motherhood can be sometimes.
From the time the little mini monsters come out of our bodies it is a constant cater to everything pertaining to their well being. Our own well being suddenly becomes extinct. We no longer have days at the salon or days spent window shopping at the mall…oh wait I didn’t really do that even before I had kids.
*Gets to stay home and watch her children grow each and every day.
~This also means I am never away from you to have a moment to even have a thought of my own!
*Loves to watch every exciting new moment discovered in your eyes.
~Especially the moments of getting soap in them and screaming like you are being set on fire!
*Couldn’t imagine her life without you in it.
~Just please let me sleep in for once!
*Watches you interact with one another and realizes the choice to have more then one was the right choice.
~Then you start fighting! Thought destroyed…moment over.
*Sees how much you are growing up and starting to be more independent by picking up your toys.
~That lasted 5 minutes.
*Wants to love you, and squeeze you, and smother you with kisses.
~What’s that smell? Is that fucking poop in your hair?
*Loves to watch you run and play outside as the sun beats on your beautiful face.
~Is that dog shit on your shoe? GET BACK OUTSIDE!
*Just look how innocent you look while you are sleeping.
~Whats that on your sheets? IS THAT PERMANENT MARKER?!?!
*Would do anything for her children.
~No you can’t have another sibling!
*Loves being your mommy.
~Through good times and bad…all the time.

Your words took me down my memory lane. With every word, i relived those post moments. No doubt it is the most stressful stage where we have to be on our toes all the time but at the end of the day what counts is the happiness!
