Mom

My mom is here for 2 weeks and she has already been such a big help. She has spoiled Aid rotten bringing with her little surprises to make him feel special. She has spoiled us rotten. She has helped with doing the dishes and straightening the house and even re-organizing my recipe book! And when we are both dead on our feet she is running around the house with Aid or reading him a book or watching a movie with him. She is doing everything we need her to do.

It is so comforting having my mom here through all of this. I don't have to worry about offending her if I am snappy from being over tired. I don't have to worry that I'm not keeping the house quite as clean as I usually do. I don't have to worry if she thinks I'm letting Aid watch too much tv at the moment. She is just here being supportive but not intrusive. She is giving advice without judgment if I don't follow it. She is being so hands on while giving us space as a new family.

I love you mom. Thanks for being here for me and for us....
