I was chatting with a friend about this and that....(mostly about parenthood and her fear of having children) when she stopped to clarify "like you- you love being a mom. I can tell you enjoy being a mom". That got me thinking about a couple things.
1) Do I really enjoy being a mom? YES! Yes I do! I have waited a long time for this day and I can truly say that I love it! I could go on and on listing all the pros and cons and everything I love and enjoy and have learned. All the situations and emotions I expected, and didn't expect. But that is a post for another day. For now I will just say that despite the craziness and poop and lack of sleep, I love being a mom.
2) Secondly, can other tell that I love being a mom? This friend, at least, could tell by something I was doing or saying, that I do enjoy parenthood. What was it exactly? Something I said? How I tell stories about my kids? How I react to them?
3) I want the world to know that I love being a mom. I will watch my words and actions and social media posts a little more closely so that they accurately reflect my true feelings. I love being a mom.
