Being a Mom

There are days I wonder if I'm doing the right thing. There are days I don't feel like reading two books instead of one. There are days I want to hurry along our bedtime routine. There are days I don't like what I see in the mirror. BUT someday you will not want me to read you any books or rock you before bed. AND I've got time to get my body back to how I like it as what I see in the mirror is a mark of pride not disgust! Then I read the below and remember why I LOVE it all!
I've carried children within my body. Slept with babies on my chest. I've kissed boos boos and mended broken hearts. I've been puked on, peed on, and spent sleepless nights in the rocking chair. But I wouldn't have it any other way. My body isn't magazine perfect, but when I look in the mirror I see a MOM, and there is no greater honor... or blessing!!
I love my babies Lolo and Colty!
