A New State of Mind...

It’s true what they about having a child and how that will change your thought processes. Everything in comparison to my son is so minor! I used to be so caught up in thinking that some things were so important and that if it certain things didn’t the way I THOUGHT they should be, all would be over and the world would come crashing to an end! Of course when Dec 30, 2009 rolled around that all changed!! I remember me worrying soo much about possible resenting the fact that I couldn’t sleep as much I used to. I have to admit, it does get a little hard sometimes and yes I do miss being able to sleep in from time to time, however I don’t miss it over all. I definitely don’t resent the fact that I can’t do it anymore. I’m also amazed at my automatic response to the day to day care of Kevin. It’s like I don’t think about it…I just do it! This applies to his feedings, bathing, entertaining, nurturing, etc. Seriously, I get up no matter how tired or EXHAUSTED I may feel and do whatever needs to be done for him. The best part of it is that I LOVE doing it for him. I have yet to experience a begrudged feeling towards him when he needs me to take of him.

I guess that’s what a mom is all about!

God truly knew what he was doing by making you a mommy before me, because of how close I am to you, I know you will be such a good guide for me... I am following "Pamie's guide to parenting" 100 percent lol.. (by the way, you should write that one)... that part about sleep, is something that I always wonder about in the back of my mind... will I be resentful or miss life as it was???? I am so glad you could relate and put it out there that really you wont miss it...
