being a mom, and then learning how not to be

The first moments.

The moment is yours forever. No matter how you got to this point, your sweet baby is being handed to you for the first time. The world goes away. Just joy. You feel baby’s skin against yours, look into those eyes, and finally are introduced to the child you have been connected with all these months.

No matter how many children you have, it happens every time. A different soul; a beautiful new bond between mother and child. These first moments are one of God’s many gifts to Mothers.
