I am loving the Spring weather, I hope it stays lol. As you may know, Mother's Day is coming up and I just wanted to share what I have learned since I've become a mom. I just love this pic when he was a baby When I found out I was carrying my son, so many emotions and thoughts were running through my mind. Was I ready to be a Mom? Will I be a good Mom? How do I raise a child? I guess I wasn't able to answer those questions until my son was born. It was love at first sight and I guess the instinct would just kick in. I survived the sleepless nights(still don't know how I still functioned without sleep lol), diaper explosions, spitting up before trying to leave the house and all the fun stuff lol.  I also loved watching him discover his hands and feet, the cute laughs and giggles, when he started moving around and watching him take his first steps. I was just amazed during the first year and was looking forward to continue watching him grow and develop.  ...

I had other stuff on my mind but with Mother's Day around the corner, the thought of this post changed! It's just amazing how motherhood can change your life and perspective on things! You have someone else to think about first, care and provide for and teach about life. Growing up, I thought I knew it all. Boy was I wrong lol! I remember when my mom told me I had to start doing my own laundry. I didn't really listen on how to do it. When I tried to wash my clothes, I honestly thought the washing machine already had the soap in it so all I had to do was throw the clothes in. Lol, I still laugh about that. She laughed at me too and taught me the right way. She had so many life lessons for me that I didn't appreciate or really grasp until I was independent and doing things on my own. She was right about everything she was teaching me and I appreciate it so much. I love how supportive my mom is. She's always there when I need her, especially helping me raise my son. Na...
