One month of cuddling.
One month full of kisses.
One month of pulling all nighters together.
One month since we welcomed this precious baby into the world and into our lives. He has certainly changed things for the better in so many ways. It's only been 28 days with a baby in the house yet I can't seem to remember what life was like without him.
I know I showered and slept more often. I went out to eat A LOT more and left the house to run errands more frequently. I thought about myself much more and worried about trivial things too often. I cleaned the house more and was always caught up on my favorite tv shows. I saw my friends more and planned weekend activities much easier.
I also know I was missing a part of my heart that only this little guy could fill. I didn't get near as many snuggles as I do now and my arms were so very empty all of the time. My thoughts have now changed from all about me to all about him. My trivial worries have turned into worries regarding this tiny little helpless human that needs me. All of the time.
Some might say my "life" is over but really it has just begun. It's only been one month with this angel but I daydream about the days, weeks, months and years to come. I look forward to the future with the son that God has blessed me with. I feel myself transforming into a different person in so many ways that can only happen when becoming a mother. I am so very grateful for my sweet Brayden Luke and I thank God each day for entrusting me to be his mommy while he is on this earth. What a huge blessing and honor to know God wanted ME to love on this little boy and call him my own. I pray he grows in the Lord always.
Happy 1 Month little man! I love you more than words can even describe!
