Being a Mom is the Best!

I'm so blessed to be able to be a mom. I get to bond most intimately with my children. What other time or phase of life will I be able to care for a newborn around the clock. It is a sacred opportunity! Even when I'm exhausted I feel it is such a privilege to snuggle and nurse this little one. I don't want to miss a minute of her being awake even when it is in the middle of the night.

There just isn't enough time to soak in these precious, fleeting moments. A new baby's sweet little grunts, tiny toes, grasping fingers, rooting mouth, soft breathing, adorable wiggles, etc. I just can't express how grateful I am for these truly heavenly experiences. I'm so blessed to have my sweet children with me all the time. I love being a mom!!

But now I need to recharge my body a bit. I don't like missing anything. There is so much I want to take in and do, but I'm human and my body is starting to shut down. I don't want to get sick, so I'm going to bed early tonight. Good night!

Here is one of those precious moments!
