When I was pregnant with my son I knew I wanted to stay home but I figured I'd eventually go back to work once he was old enough to start school. It was always in the back of my mind those 9 months of what will I do when I will go back? What am I going to be when I grow up?! I'm already grown for peat's sake!! Shouldn't I have figured this out already and have it all together?
When my son was born something clicked. As I became more confident being a Mom and being home, I realized THIS is what I want to be when I grow up! I'm good at this! I feel challenged, comfortable, creative, and appreciated in this role (even when its not always shown I know that I'm appreciated). I know that when this season is gone. And my child(ren) are grown that I will find a new role/career. But until then I'm savoring all the moments I can because this is the happiest and most content I've ever been.
It isn't always rainbows and sunshine, WE have our bad days and moments. I can get just as ugly as he can when we're just having an off day. But you can't have the good without the bad. I've made my fair share of mistakes as a Mom but I'm learning. I am so very gratefull that I am a Mom and that I finally found my niche.
