On motherhood
Motherhood has its ups and downs and I have briefly described some of them in my previous posts. The interesting thing is that the more time passes the more experience I gain and it brings more joy. Now I can say that there are definitiley more ups than downs.
Having a baby means not only changing your daily schedule but also changing your lifestyle and the way you see life in general. I try to put myself in his shoes and see the world with his eyes. As a result I started to notice things which did not have much importance for me before. I find myself staring at every cat or dog I see on the street. Or I often look for birds in the sky so that i could show them to Oliver. We spend more time playing outside. We sing. We dance. We make crazy faces and we smile in a very silly way. I didn't know there was so much craziness inside me. I get to discover myself all over again! I actually discover the world. A completely new world!
I knew that parenthood was beautiful. Now I convince myself of that even more. Because you can never know its real value until you feel it. Having a little human around makes you more sensitive, more carefull, more gentle and more organized.
The best thing to do with a baby is to DISCOVER. There is always a first time: first smile, first step, first kiss, first hug, first meal, first trip, first walk on the beach.... And the list can continue. It is a tremendous feeling and I still cannot believe I am living it. I hope that by the time he turns 18 i will get used to it :D
I will keep coming with updates regarding motherhood as the time passes.
