But you know what else you find out - how to laugh. So I thought I’d share a few of my favorite funny motherhood memories - well they are funny now anyway.
1) Figuring out how to use a breast pump - doesn’t seem hard but looking back it was maybe the funniest time.
2) Getting puked on. This never gets old and really isn’t funny but I’d catch their puke any day if it could make them feel better.
3) Lola’s blow out at my work - all over my pants - in my boss’s office
4) How they mispronounce words - my favorite was Greta saying com-marshmellow for commercial. We still giggle about it today
5) When Lola dumped sprinkles all over the kitchen and was playing in them
And so many more that I can’t think of - part of motherhood not remembering everything.
You also find your tribe of moms to help you. I am a firm believer it take a village and I’m so happy with the moms in mine. They love my kids and that’s what matters to me. Oh and maybe if they are fun and like the occasional glass of wine helps too!
So as I continue on this adventure called motherhood - I have to remind myself to enjoy it. Be in the moment. And live!
So to the ones that made me a mommy - I love you.
To the one that gave me life - I love you!
