Well, I don't have much time these days to REALLY write on my blog. I'm also not much of a writer anymore. But, I have really been feeling lots of emotions lately and reflecting about the things I've learned these last 7 months...Where do I begin?
- Motherhood is the Hardest Job in the World- that's an obvious one
- Husbands...why can't they just figure it out- a "happy wife is a happy life" Love my hubby...but come on- that part is easy. But Husbands need lots of love too.
- Working and motherhood- wow! Really tough.
- A clean house is important, but really hard to keep up with a 7-month old and getting ready to move.
- Life as I knew it will never be the same again. And that's okay.
- Fear. Fear takes over all the time...I am so scared of so many things...
- Jacob's 1st "fall"- hopefully it won't be too hard
- Crawling- OMG! It is going to happen any day and I am so scared because I am constantly cleaning the floors and combing the carpet to make sure there is nothing he could pick up and put in his mouth- I am so scared of that- so scared of choking- I am thinking about taking a class on what to do just in case...am I crazy? Does anyone else have these fears?
- The Swine Flu- what would we do?
- When crawling- what if he pulls at something and it falls down on him- OMG! HELP- I am so worried about this mobility factor. Now I can fully protect him...but whataboutit when he is moving around and I miss something.
- His 1st Broken Heart
- 1st time someone is mean to him
***So far so good...I just want to protect him from everything. Life Happens. And that is both exciting and scarey.
Love to all you mothers out there. You are doing a great job.
Whataboutit?!

I love your point about husbands. I totally agree.
I feel ya! It's all hard and tough and life changing! Nice to know so many people are going through it at the same time! I worry about her getting hurt constantly, and how she'll be growing up, and this past week with Mike has been a scary one.
Life is short and bumpy, but it's all so worth it!
Kiss that little boy for me before he starts crawling away so fast you can't grab him :)
1st time looking at your blog!!Your baby is little doll.
TAKE HEART WHAT YOU ARE EXPERIENCING IS A "MOTHERS" LOVE.
Sometimes scarry, but the sweetest love there is.
I feel the same about a lot of this too. I worry worry too. :)
Right there with you Jill! Funny, I think we all think everybody else has it all figured out when really - we're all clueless and freaked out! :)
We all make it up as we go!
