Lennon is almost 1 month. Wow! Seriously, I know I say it EVERY time, but time flies so fast and babies don't stay babies very long. I remember with Oliver how much I missed the baby stuff, but I couldn't wait for the next stage.
I look back at my own childhood and remember how long it seem to take for every birthday. Now, it seems it all went to fast. Do I remember all the happy and sad moments? Should I have relished it and appreciated it more? I guess that's what parenthood is all about - reliving your childhood through your children's eyes. Pretty amazing.
Parenthood is so full filling and fun, yet stressful on your mind, body, and soul. There are days I want to pull my hair out and take off to Vegas. Then there are days I cry tears of joy over the little things my children do. As crazy as motherhood is, it's truly created a sense of peace in me. I'm not very spiritual, but becoming a mother has given me peace, love, and happiness that I have never known before (different than the love I have for my hubby). A sense of being.
