“There is such a special sweetness in being able to participate in creation.”
-Pamela S. Nadav
My first year as a mother.
Sometimes it’s hard to believe I am a mother. I did not know what it would be like but let me tell you… everything you have heard about it has some truth to it. It is a hard job, but satisfying all at the same time. Would I give this up to be single again and have complete freedom to do as I please, go where I want to go without considering anyone else? yes. some days I would. But would I give that up completely ? No.
My child is a blessing in my life. I do not feel alone & she gives me a purpose nothing else would be able to give me. I do believe motherhood is not for everyone but it is a beautiful experience for us that do take on the journey. I made it through my first year (& counting) and I absolutely love being a mother to my little girl.
I have not only grown as an individual but also as a wife and now parent. (*adds mother to resume*) I believe life experiences add value to your life. Parenthood has provided never ending lessons and they just keep coming at every stage. It has been a exciting, scary, frustrating, tiring, fun, but all together beautiful experience. But nevertheless, it has been quite the journey.
It has been the best thing I’ve ever done.
