Four Mother’s Days and Counting
08 May 2011 2 Comments
Babies and I
You two, my own little monkeys, have taught me so many things – how little sleep I can manage on for a year or two at a time, how many of my own words I can actually eat and stomach, how terrible twos aren’t limited only to the twos, and the very pinnacles or embarrassment and patience, amongst so many other in the same vein.
On the flip side, I’ve also learned how wonderful it is doing ‘nothing’ all day long with you, how precious gummy smiles are, how intoxicating the smell of your heads and necks and other crevices is, how deliciously soft and strokeable your skin is and of course, the inimitable joy of watching you two sleep deeply among a million other such wonderful lessons.
These are only a few of the things I’ve learned in four years of mothering. Four short years, because you know what they say, the days may be long but the years are so short.
Happy Mother’s Day, to me and my fellow mommas!
