Post 13, 2014 A good mom

I get told often that I am a good mom. I like to think I am. I put a lot of thought and work into it. But in reality the lil' makes it super easy. He is my world. I do not mind getting up at night with him or listening to him cry, helping him through a grumpy phase or making him laugh. I do so love his laugh. I love how excited he gets and starts flapping his arms up and down. I love that he has found his feet and can reach for toys. He has started to wiggle to get to where he wants to go. I love love love watching him learn new things and test his boundaries. He is such a happy baby and just wants to see you smile. He knows if he smiles, you will smile. And he loves to smile at you. His smile melts every fiber of my being. The worst day is okay because of his smile.  I am calm, he is calm. He melts down and I smile. I know some days will be rough but right now, I am just enjoying him. If that makes me a good mom, then why yes, yes I am!
