    Even though he's almost 1 year old I still find myself in disbelief that I am a Mother and he is my Son. Everyday feels like Christmas to me and every time I look at him I can't believe he's mine and I was lucky enough that we got to have him come into our family. My most special bursting with love times is when he is sound asleep in his cot and I can just stare at him and soak him up because he is quiet and still. I also burst when I see him interacting with other people and having fun. When he's playing on the swings and he laughs I just about explode with all the love that wells up inside me.

    I'm so happy that I changed my mind and decided to become a Mum. It's the best thing I have ever, EVER done and I almost missed out on the experience because I was a selfish idiot.

    When I see him running around, smiling and laughing and interacting with other children and people. I almost cry everytime!

    I have a few...

    The moment he lets go of my nipple and I look down at him and wonder exactly how he manages to get *that* much milk smeared all over his face

    Waking up to the sound of raspberries (new fave trick) and the big smile when I get out of bed to pick him up

    The way he rests his head on my shoulder and cuddles in when I'm carrying him around the house.

    Oh about half an hr ago, DD1 was in bed going to sleep and I had DD2 asleep in the ergo. I went in to check if DD1 was asleep and she wasn't yet but she stood up and said 'I need to give DD2 a kiss!' She kissed her then layed her head on DD2's and whispered 'I love my sister so much' naawwwwwwwwww
