Top 5's

There are many things that having a child have changed in my life. SJ has brought so much joy and laughter into our home. He opened my heart and as cheesy as it sounds, he truly completes me and our little family. He has taught me to be more patient, to love freely and unconditional and most of all he has taught me to smile! I can come home from a terrible day and take one look at my handsome little man and he makes everything better. I now understand what my mom had been telling me for so many years. The love you feel for your child is by far the greatest and nothing can ever compare. I'm in love with being MOM! Here are my top 5 about being a mom - good and not so good..

GOOD
1. Knowing that he was created from a part of me and Sean and was a gift from God. Created from pure love.
2. Hugs and wet sloppy kisses! Love, Love, Love them!!!
3. The daily changes - saying bye bye one day and clapping the next. The daily milestones are awesome!
4. Snuggle time - I love it when SJ is calm for a second and will lay down and snuggle with me. It never last long but I take it any changes I get
5. Never alone - I never get lonely while going potty. SJ is always there to keep me company

NOT SO GOOD
1. spontaneity - Its GONE like the wind and will not be returning for ummmmm 18 years or so. There is no spur of the moment motor cycle rides or weekend getaway. Even the trip to the grocery store take some planning.
2. Sex - Kind of goes hand and hand with spontaneity but its hard to make time to do the wild thing when you have a little one around. Get it when you can!!
3. Responsibility - You are responsibly for a life! There is no time for being sick or just wanting to be lazy. SJ keeps me busy from sunrise to sunset. Whether it feeding, changing diapers, laundry, cleaning or simply playing with him - He keeps me on my toes
4. Fear - SJ has turned me into the biggest wuss! I cry at the drop of a hat. I constantly worry about the future. Is this or that good for him... am I being the best parent I can.
5. Never alone - I never get lonely while going potty. SJ is always there to keep me company

All in all, the good out weighs the not so good and I wouldn't change a thing about my life! I love SJ with every ounce of my soul! He has made me a better person and opened my eyes and heart to so much.
I LOVE MY LIFE!!
