Three Years Later...

I was so inspired by my Baby Girl...by the transition to motherhood. I LOVE that I thought I would actually have time to blog about the experience. It is also laughable that I imagined other women being inspired by my Baby...

However I was inspired, and have reached a point where I am able and ready to write. Three years later I have a grown up girl, a "pre-schooler." She has officialy lost any likeness of a baby and has even out grown her toddlerhood. Long legs and a beautiful goofy grin have replaced her chubby thighs and cheeks, but she still has her Daddy's amazing eyes and "to die for" dimples...

The last three years have been full of change, complete joy and cruel heart aches. I write now for me and my Daughter. Gone are any ideas of enlightning other women. I have found strength in hearing the stories of other women. I offer my story in return...

My New Life

My new life began almost six months ago, the day my daughter was born. May 29th 2007 she came as a surprise with her due date still three weeks away. That night, since the moment she was born I haven't been the same. I have been looking for a way to capture my feelings, to share them. It is amazing that the words crowding my head do not always come when some one asks how motherhood is, or when I am staring at a new page in a fresh journal. This could be my medium to finaly say what is in my head and heart. To some how archive the experience for my daughter and myself, maybe connect with other mothers in their journeys, and possibly give a little insight for those who have not taken the journey of motherhood or who are just about to begin. We will see...
