Mother's love

[sloane]

I am still in awe of how when you have another, you aren't sharing smaller pieces of yourself, it is like you just get more...like they were always there and you just didn't realise it yet.

this is so true. I never knew I had so much capacity to love. I also think it's amazing how they can challenge you and push limits but it has no affect on my love for them

I expected it to be all-consuming but I didn't expect what all-consuming feels like. Everytime I look at my DS I just almost burst. He's 19months old and the feeling of bursting with love is as strong as ever. I was talking to some older ladies (in their late 60's/70's) the other week and they told me that the all-consuming-bursting-with-love feeling never goes away. I was so thankful to hear that.

I love, love, love being a Mum. I love watching DD learn new things and experience things for the first time. I love watching her play. I love playing with her. I love the cuddles and kisses. I love listening to her talk. I love that she's so polite ("thank you Mummy"). I love the way she runs to me when I pick her up from childcare. I love the way she tries to do things I'd never even think of (anyone tried using two forks in the same hand at the same time??). I could go on and on. I love being Mummy
