Highs and Lows
The seventh month old eyes locks with mine as he smiles behind his pacifier. The challenges of motherhood are all forgotten in this beautiful moment as my little boy's bright smile meets my own, laughs when I laugh, so clearly telling me that I am his favorite person in the world. It's little moments like these that make all the sleepless nights and all the busy days worth it. What he is saying without saying a single word fills my heart and makes me forget my headache and my long to-do list. There's nowhere else I'd rather be than here with my little boy who thinks that I, in spite of my many mistakes, am the best mom in the whole entire world. There may be many lows in motherhood, but this is one of the many highs.
