Motherhood

Motherhood is hard. The hardest thing I've ever done. 

The first two weeks of having Ames home I was a complete mess

 and was wondering what I got myself into. 

It wasn't anything like I'd imagined 

and I felt this distance between me and this sweet little boy 

that I never thought would be there. 

Fast forward to now, 3 1/2 weeks later. 

I hate that it had to start out that way, 

but I grew and learned so much mentally, physically, and spiritually. 

Things are so much better and I feel that amazing bond with my little boy that I longed to have. 

You really can't explain how hard and amazing being a new mom is. 

You just have to experience it. 

That being said, I know I have been horrible at blogging. 

But I honestly don't care :) 

I'd much rather be loving on my little boy. 

As I slowly start getting this mom thing down I promise I'll get back at it, 

but I can't say when that will be. 

Like I've said before, I hope you'll stick with me on this journey and stay tuned.

Thank you, thank you loyal readers!
