All I know is that DH & I are extremely blessed to have such beautiful children....DS is now 3, but I swear that he is still in the midst of terrible 2's. Just the same, at the end of the day, after a day full of tears and tantrums, bedtime approaches and I wouldn't give them up for all the money in the world. I treasure every moment, especially the love & affection DS, shows his baby sister...and the way she smiles back and giggles. I will always love them no matter what. The love I feel for them is at times quite overwhelming and my heart feels like it is going to burst.....something so strong and powerful could never fizzly out.
I so understand what everyone is saying. Before I had my son, I had just no idea when mothers used to ramble on about their little ones, but now I know why.
My son wasn't planned, and his father is not in our lives as he decided he wasn't ready. My life was so selfish before my son, and now, I just look at him, and I truly understand it when they say your 'heart swells'. I would do anything for him.
Its almost like you love them so much that it hurts. I have found that motherhood has softened me, to the point where I don't like just how much! I am SO extra sensitive to things I hear on the news, like babies dying or any harm coming to children, I cry when I hear it. And sometimes it can stay with me for hours.
But yes, i absolutely adore motherhood. I am always saying 'I just so love this age!!'
