I'm a mom...

 

Do you ever just sorta realize in a dazed moment that YOU ARE A MOM. 

 

Do you wonder how you got to this place of....

 

 

 

 mini vans,

 Legos on the floor,

 chore charts,

 consequences,

 hugs that make you stop breathing,

 smiles,

 

 baby dolls,

 time management,

 meal planning,

pacifiers,

 choice- making,

 letting go,

 holding on,

 wanting time to stop,

 excitement at accomplishments,

 crayons to marker,

dress up clothes,

 make up,

all the firsts,

and some of the lasts,

light saber training,

 yelling,

 forgiving,

 asking forgiveness,

 Good Night Moon,

 hot wheels,

 art classes,

attitudes,

chubby hands under the bathroom door,

first bike ride,

Mommy,

birthday parties,

 gymnastics,

 karate,

 fear,

Barney, Little Bear and Land Before Time,

Christmas mornings,

 anxiety,

 ponytails,

messes,

tears,

wooden trains,

broken hearts,

friendships,

 scissors,

vacations,

pets burials,

 swimming lessons,

 teaching,

chicken pox,

 training,

cribs to twin beds,

 guarding hearts,

 prayer,

 more prayer,

 family traditions

 

 

I know I do.
