“When a baby is born, so is a mother. She never existed before this moment. The woman did, but not the Mother.”
The first photo I have of precious baby Jackson and his proud Mummy. After such a rough start, I am so thrilled to finally be able to say ‘Welcome to the world Little One. You are loved and you are already so strong. I can’t wait to see the person you grow up to be.’
I was greeted by this lovely message on my mailbox, I saw it from my car, before I’d even pulled in the driveway.
I parked the car, feeling elated, a huge smile on my face, when I got out of the car I discovered a pathway of hand drawn chalk hearts leading from my parking spot into the house, and a very excitable five year old bouncing around.
Hand in hand we followed the path of hearts to a hand made gift and a great big hug.
Perfect. No commercialism, just pure love and self driven expression.
Leelee knows that she is the only person in the world who knows what my heart sounds like; from the inside.
I thought this today as I sat sewing a pajamas for a dolly.
I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face.
My mummy is here with us, everyday.
Mother
Breakfast in bed. The perks of Motherhood :)
A mother holds her daughters hands for a while… their hearts forever.
