Thoughts on Motherhood!

Motherhood has GOT to be one of the most rewarding things of life! It's crazy how your heart enlarges to be able to love! I cannot believe that Avery is almost 6 months old! (on June 18th)

10 Things I've learned about myself since becoming a mother:

1. I'm more assertive than I thought (having a child brings it out of you :) ).
2. I care a lot less about my career than I ever thought I would.
3. I love my husband that much MORE!!!
4. I am that much more grateful to my parents for all the hard work I never noticed or, honestly,
cared about before I had a child.
5. I care less about what people think about me and am more content in my relationships.
6. I better understand God's love for me.
7. I get up more easily in the morning and have more zest for life than I ever thought I would.
8. I worry more than I thought I would about my child.
9. Did I mention that I love my husband that much more? :)
10. My dog has been demoted to "just dog" status.
