Thoughts on motherhood

A couple of people have asked me how being a new mommy is coming along. Being a mother is huge. Something I have been preparing for my whole entire life and now it's here! That seriously boggles my mind. I look at my little girl and think, "I'm your mama! Holy cow I am your mama!" To those who asked,  I would have to say that being a mother has surprisingly come very naturally. Like it was rooted in me the whole entire time, but waiting for the right moment to bring itself forth. And that moment was when I held my little girl for the first time. My motherly instincts came in full force. Sure I still struggle with every day new mommy things, I still look/feel very awkward carrying a car seat around, and I can't seem to get myself ready until after 1:00 but being a mother is wonderful. Amazing. And as always, a working progress. Good thing Evelyn is very patient with me!
