Its hard to believe that this time last year at this time I was a large waddling pregnant lady. As much as I wanted that baby out I was terrified of actually having a baby to care for. No amount of reading or friendly advice can prepare you for roller coaster of parent hood. As usual Tim took everything in stride hardly phased by the new addition to our family. And I..... well was overly emotional mess.
The next couple of months went by quick and it was time for me to return to work. After a couple heart breaking days I decided that working full time wasn't going to pan out. I belonged at home with my baby. I still work very part-time, just to get out of the house and help out with the grocery bill.
The ups and downs, sleepless nights, and clueless moments have all been worth it. Becoming a parent is the most rewarding experience of my life. I have watched that little newborn baby turn into an action packed toddler. And even though our relationship hit fast forward with the addition of a baby we are still that happy go lucky, fly by the seat of our pants couple. We might not be rich in a financial sense but every night I go to bed feeling like a millionaire from the love and joy that fills our home.
