I Remember This Feeling….
Babies are such a delight.
Mine is the joy of our days.
He’s cheerful, funny, obedient and silly.
He’s into throwing himself around. He’s just playing, being a boy. He throws himself into the sofa, your lap, the bed. It’s cute.
Until…
This morning we were face to face and he threw his forehead into my nose.
I tell you, I haven’t been the same all day.
You know the feeling….
You’ve all been there……
For just a second you wonder if your nose has been broken. The pain is so bad, but you can’t fuss or cry because he’s just a baby and he’s standing there giggling and delighted with himself that he is having such a good time with Mommy.
But Mommy is older than she used to be.
My recovery time is slower than it was when my first baby was 2 years old.
Headache is the word for the day.
Motherhood is painful.
Motherhood is worth it.
