What I thought about Motherhood

Five short months ago, I became a mother.

I thought it was going to be hard. Guess what? It is. But it's also worth it.

I thought Truett would look like a Dawson with big brown eyes, but as it turns out, he looks just like his handsome dad (bonus)!

I thought Truett was going to let me dress him cute every day. Turns out, he just spits up on everything I put him in and ruins his clothes before they ever get on his body.

I thought being a mother would require a little extra effort and a forfeit of some sleep. Turns out, that's kind of an understatement. :) It also requires a dirty house.

I thought being a mom would be so rewarding, and guess what? It really REALLY is.

I thought loving Jonathan was all that my heart could hold. I didn't know my heart.

I love being a mom. I. Love. Being. A. Mom.

It's the hardest job. It's the best job. And yes, I want to have 10 more kids!
