Max has taught me so much in just two short months. Yup, he will be 8 weeks on tuesday. I wrote in my journal for the first time since i have had him. I reflected on how at first I tried to fit max into my life and how I quickly realized it was a priveledge to be a part of his life. Even though life has changed for the better,I have started to see the same things differently. I don't have time to long for things in the future when ever hour I am thinking about how to make max happy.
I have spent a lot of time wondering about the greener grass on the other side but thanks to max, I am starting to learn how to appreciat right here and now before it passes me by. Last night all I was thinking about at first when max got up was how long it would take to put him back to sleep. In the middle of nursing him, in the dark he just pulled away from me, looked up at me and paused, then smiled and started cooing at me. My heart melted and I just talked to him for a few minutes and we both smiled and stared at each other. I won't get that exact moment again and I'm glad I had it. Here is another moment I am glad I have on tape so I can enjoy it over and over again.

Well, Mary...you have found the secret to motherhood. Everything is a phase and is temporary - the good AND the bad. So by realizing that and cherishing every moment of goodness you will find joy in motherhood!!! Thx for the precious coo's!
