parenting is an experience

the hubby and i married late in our 30's and it took us three (3) years before we were blessed with a baby. we were mentally and emotionally prepared, equipped with good natal care and armed with up-to-date books and paraphernalia. but nothing prepared me when i held my boy in my arms and he cried for the first time. Now at 27 months, each day is a new experienc.e My boy has taught me things that i never see, feelings i never thought i'd experience, things i never thought i can give unconditionally. he has made me more mature...more complete....more WOMAN. I want to share a post from Amanda Griffin of Glam-o-Mamas.
"Nothing can really prepare you for the experience that is parenting. Not books, not research, not experts nor your friends. It is so much more rewarding and so much more difficult than you are ever told or can ever conceive. I look at my son now and wonder how I lived without him. The unconditional love you feel for your child is life changing. Of course it is also one of the most challenging things you will ever do." -- Amanda Jacob, from "Mummy's Yummies" on glamomamas.com
