Mommyhood

 

 

 

When I started this blog, I had the intentions of posting the good, the bad & the ugly.

 

This has been weighing on my mind A LOT lately and I felt that I needed to write it down. Something to come back and reflect on.

 

When I got pregnant with Dominick, I had the silly notion that most new mom's do...that parenting was going to be tough but it couldn't be THAT hard. Boy, was I mistaken.

 

I have learned quite a bit in the last 3 years and 5 months. I have learned that the joy, the wonder & happiness that flows in my heart is brought by two boys that I helped to create.

 

I have learned that motherhood would challenge me in ways I never thought possible all while testing boundaries I didn't know existed.

 

Some days my kids push me to my limits. Some days they push me past my limits.

Motherhood has made me stronger, I have learned to speak up when needed and not give up until I think things are the best for my child.

Motherhood is exhausting.

I have learned that with each new age & stage comes its unique set of challenges.

I am learning & growing with my kids. Often times I feel like I am totally failing and I will mess them up for the rest of their lives.

But at the end of the day, no matter how hard or challenging it was...I want nothing more than to climb in bed next to my babies and tell them how much I love them.

No matter what happens or how lost they feel, I hope that they will know they are fiercely loved and forever wanted. Everyday is brighter & happier because they are a part of it.

I love you everyday in everyway as long as I'm breathing. Thanks for choosing me as your momma Dominick & Aidan! My life would be incomplete without you in it.

Until next time friends,
