Life as a mom can be really tough. We don’t sleep. We give our time freely for our kids. Sometimes I feel like I have ADD. Today I was cleaning and got about 10 minutes done at a time before TJ would go waaaaaaaa
It’s not always easy, but boy is it worth it. When I get to see that boy look up at me with his sweet smile, and especially now that we are getting some adorable giggles come…there is so much love <3
I love seeing Alphonse with him. He’s such an amazing dad. I knew he’d be a great dad, but he’s even better than I’d ever imagined. He is seriously great…he loves helping out with bath time, he changes dirty diapers, he watched him so I can go to the gym a couple times a week…I try to take as many pictures and videos as I can of TJ because I know that time is fleeting and he’s literally growing up before our eyes. It seems like every day he’s doing something new. Hubby calls me the paparazzi =) I’m totally ok with that though—I want to remember every single moment of him growing up.
I’m so blessed that I’m able to stay with him right now—I’m praying that our businesses continue to flourish so that I can stay home with him. So far, so good—I honestly can’t stand the idea of missing out on anything!
I love baby snuggles. Especially when it’s the three of us in bed early in the morning when TJ is wide awake and we all cuddle together…it’s my absolute favorite.
Time slow down! I want these baby snuggles to last forever.
I pray that as he grows, I can guide him to become a loving, patient, God-fearing man who respects women. Who is a hard worker with a servant’s heart. I pray every day that God helps me with this whole mothering thing. I want to do it right. I want TJ to know just how loved he is—by God, by me and Alphonse, our family…
I pray that God directs my words and my actions. That He helps me to be patient on those days when I just need a break. That He helps me to speak loving words over TJ. I pray that He helps me to be the best mom I can be. I know I won’t be perfect. I know I’m going to mess up and make mistakes. I just want to do my best. <3
