Friday, May 10, 2013. Being a mamma means bags under your eyes that make up could never cover . But this bedhead is worth it! Being a mama means lots of feeding problems. But, oh, that double chin is worth it. Being a mamma means experiencing some pretty terrifying things during labor. Being a mamma means learning all over again how to be a wife. But seeing this every bedtime is so worth it. But watching her learn is worth it.

Somewhere between late twenties and becoming a grownup. I would love to lie and say the past year has been nothing short of perfection and that motherhood met my expectations. Your natural instinct of mothering. You look after, care for, and love this small person more than anything in the world and you just do. I feel overwhelmed by that. That natural instinct of love. It catches you a little off guard.

I found these adorable hand made glass love birds that would make an amazing cake topper.
