I had a great Mother's Day and will post about the day later, but I just wanted to journal some thoughts. I want to write how honored and blessed I feel to be Jaidan's mommy. From the moment I pick him up in the morning from his crib, to when I breathe in his little boy scent at night while I read him a story, I feel so fortunate to have this time with him. I just don't want him to grow up! Sure there are tough moments (trying to get him out of a store while he is screaming for something) and moments I am not exactly looking forward to (potty training) but at the end of the day I experience a "good tired." A feeling that I'm making a difference in my child's life. I may not be getting everything right, or doing enough educational or motor skill development activities every day, but one thing is for sure - Manish and I shower him with love, love and more love. I kiss him every chance I get. Some people wonder how I can be a stay at home mom, how I don't go crazy all day, etc. There will be a time when he is older that I will pursue ventures outside the home, but for now, the simple truth is this: there is no where else I'd rather be than at home with my child!
