He can...

He can...

  • ...make me lose sleep because of the slightest wheeze in his breathing.
  • ...drive me nuts because he sprays baby food all over the kitchen and then grins about it.
  • ...make me cry when he cries because he is hurting.
  • ...make me laugh because he is laughing at my barnyard sounds.
  • ...make me talk to myself because I'm trying to figure out what he wants next.
  • ...make me crash on the couch after carrying him all over the house.
  • ...make my back ache because he weighs almost 20 pounds.
  • ...make me seek the ibuprofen bottle multiple times a weekend.
  • ...create some horrible smells.
  • ...generate more loads of laundry than I ever thought was possible.
  • ...throw up enough formula to soak his carseat.
  • ...bring tears to my eyes because I know this little person is a part of me and the love of my life.
  • ...brighten my day with a little grin.
  • ...strike a pose for the camera!






He's my baby and always will be...no matter how tall or how old he is. Now I understand what my mom meant.

My dear,

You. Are. In. Love.

And I couldnt' be happier for you.

Motherhood, it's kind of like the Peace Corp: "The Toughest Job You'll ever Love."
