When I dreamed of becoming a mother I never really could grasp what it would mean. Would I be a good mom? Would I even like my kids? I knew I would probably love my kids but to actually like them I knew was a different story. I have been blown away by motherhood thus far, learning more than I ever imagined. Loving Jackson is the most refreshingly effortless thing I have ever experienced. I love his sweet nature. I love his precious ears. I love his snuggles. I just plain old love him! I hear women say sometimes that becoming a mother made them lose themselves. I have found it to be quite the opposite. Sure I don't look particularly glamorous in my oversized sweatpants and yellow hoodie but I have found some of the best parts of me coming to the surface in the last two years. Thank you Jackson for teaching me what it means to love!
