The Day My Heart Melted
There are a wonderful bounty of different days as a parent - there are those days that just go smoothly and you feel like you are doing ok in the balance of being a parent. There are those days when you long to even just to go to the toilet alone - because even that would mean a whole 60 seconds of peace! Without little hands trying to shove toilet paper down the toilet whilst you are wanting to *go* There are those days when all you seem to do is play mediator to end the battles which happen because "MUMMY!! JOSHUA IS PLAYING WITH MY WORMAID" (aka MERmaid)
And there are those days like today, when your heart just literally melts.
Maddy's teacher presented me with this today...
In the 3.5 years of me becoming a mother - this is the first time Maddy has ever drawn a picture of me, her Mum. The fact that I have a VERY happy face with a happy smile, just makes me want pick her up and cuddle her forever - which is exactly what I have been doing today. My first-born is growing into a remarkably sweet little girl and I feel honoured to be her Mum.
Oh how precious!As they get older It seems like the good
days far out weigh the bad. I love the picture! So cute!
