Reflections on Being a Mom


Posted by Picasa

I can't believe I've actually made it to Spring Break! Before Ethan was born, I thought I'd be doing good if I could nurse him until now. And I've done it! Last week he was being cranky and I was afraid he wouldn't nurse anymore. I cried. Then there are other times when I'm pumping during my lunch hour (or "lunch fifteen minutes", rather) or in the middle of the night and I think, "Okay, I'm ready to be done with this!" But I'll really be ready when the time comes. It's not like I spend hours a day feeding Ethan anymore. I kind of miss those times. It's when I would get caught up on my reading and tell Ethan how much I love him. Now I'm caught up on my sleep instead.
