The baby.
I should’ve done this 10 years ago. Of course, I hadn’t met Sherri yet and I can’t imagine doing this with anyone else (she’s Supermom!), so that isn’t a regret I’m sharing, just me looking back…
The baby’s amazing. All the stuff I thought would bother me doesn’t. I don’t care about changing diapers or a little spit-up or grumpiness. It’s a very small price to pay for the reward of him looking into my eyes with love & curiosity. My life is now oriented to making him comfortable… so yes, changing diapers, rocking him, talking to him, patting his back, helping mommy feed him. Whatever it takes.
So while he’s been consuming most of our cycles, other threads continue in the background. We’ve been assured our home purchase is on track. I’m still working from home successfully. We walk every night. Parents are visiting now or soon. And so on.
What’s new with you?
