I LOVE being a Mom! I can’t explain how much more fulfilling my life is now that I have a son to care for. My heart fills with joy each time I see my little baby boy. I can never give him too many kisses and oh, doesn’t he smell so good? I love rubbing my check across the top of his soft head and holding him as he drifts off to sleep, not wanting to put him down. I love all the little noises and cooing sounds he makes and I love playing with and reading to him. Feeding him is one of our favorite times together. I don’t even mind changing his diapers, course I do watch out for Old Faithful!  I have definitely become less selfish and more selfless, but I wouldn’t change it for anything. I absolutely LOVE being a Mom!

My Baby Boy and Me

It’s three AM, they’re all asleep,
and no-one’s here to see.
As we rock slowly back and forth,
My baby boy and me.

His little hand is feather light
Tucked up against my chin.
I hold his tiny hand in mine,
and stroke his baby skin.

The house about us creaks and groans,
The clock hands creep around.
He snuggles closer to me still,
And makes his baby sounds.

I love these quiet hours so much,
And cherish every one.
Store memories up inside my heart
For lonely nights to come.

All too soon he’ll be grown up,
His need for mama gone.
But until then I still have time
For kisses and for song.

Time for quiet hours like this
With him cuddled in my arms,
Where I wish he’d always stay
Protected, safe and warm.

And yet I know the day will come
When his tiny little hand,
will be bigger than my own.
He’ll grow to be a man.

But until then he’s mine to love
With no one here to see.
As we rock slowly back and forth,
My baby boy and me.
