About Me

I wonder what you think about me. I wonder if you think I'm a good mom. I wonder if you look at me the way I look at you - with adoration. You woke up this morning around 5:15 am (an hour earlier than necessary) and I brought you to bed. I usually know better. You never go back to sleep with us. Instead, you will play with our hair and point out each eye and nose you can feel in the dark. I've actually looked forward to you falling asleep in our bed so many times, but you just don't. This morning you snuggled into my side and I thought, THIS IS IT! But alas, you started kicking your feet under the covers and giggled. Then you rubbed my face gently and kissed me over and over. I WILL TAKE THIS OVER SLEEPING :) I nuzzled your neck and let your fine, soft, bleach blonde hair tickle my nose. I thought of you, the night before, running around in your new pink pajamas. Your stocky little legs and pony tail bouncing up and down. You are so big. You are so little. I want to be a good role model for you. I want yo to see how hard I work, but how easy it is to drop things if you need me. I want you to know that you can dream big and daddy and I will support you in every way that we can. I want you to think I am a loving mother, a supportive wife, an inspiring teacher, a creative photographer, a good cook, ........ I take on so much and right now I think I have taken on TOO much. There is growing in that too. I want to teach you about the world, and rules, and how rules are meant to be broken sometimes :) I want so much for you and I am so proud of the tiny toddler that you are. You are opinionated, strong, funny, smart, loving, and thoughtful. "I love you more, Mom." <---- the best! I love YOU more, Molly. xo
