Love

Last night, I danced cheek-to-cheek with my son and sang 'Baby Mine' to put him to sleep. I loved feeling him relax against me and slowly drift off to sleep.

My son has a double chin and chubby cheeks and has outgrown newborn diapers and most of his newborn clothes. I love that my milk is making him big and strong, and I love the time we share while nursing.

I love that my freezer is full of breast milk.

My son looks into my eyes, and I love that he will never doubt my love for him. I know he will smile soon...I can just tell.

Most of all, I love being his mother!

I'm not going to lie, I got a little teary-eyed when I read this post. I don't have a child, and I'm sure it will be MUCH different when I actually do, but I do know the feeling of loving someone so much that you just want to cry. The you-love-them-so-much-it-hurts kinda thing.

I'm so very happy for you, and I'm glad to see that you're enjoying being a mother (not that I expected anything different..)
