I feel like when I first became a mom, I was excited by all of the new things that were ahead of me. I was excited to meet my son, to meet this little alien that had inhabited my body for 9 months. I was excited for a lifetime of firsts with him. His first steps, his first words, all of the new experiences for both of us.
But I realize now that this was what I was waiting for all this time. And this is what has me SO excited to have a big kid now…
Because this was me, way back in the day…
And this is him now…
My big kid is playing soccer!!!
I love being a mom.
