1. Even though being a stay at home mom is extremely difficult for me and at times I think I can't handle it: I truly enjoy being with my boy all day long. I love our routine and our little life together. I love how we know each other. I saw that he would look for me when things were overwhelming with activity. He looked as if to say: "Mama, hold me and give me a taste of our quiet."
2. Grayson does awesome with other children. Though he is too young to truly "play" with other kids, he enjoys their movements and their activity. Watching him with other little ones makes me realize I need to find a group for him to be with consistently. I think babes learn from other babes more than they can learn from us in the first few years.
3. Being around other moms makes things easier. Chaos is hard, but chaos with another soldier in the trenches makes it much more bearable if not enjoyable. Having a cup of coffee and cleaning up spit up while laughing with someone is better than going at it alone.
4. Maybe Grayson needs a sibling........maybe. Im not sold on this one, yet.
5. I'm blessed. I couldn't have Grayson without my inlaws. My little boy is a perfect blend of me and them. I've always loved them but seeing them through that lens makes me love and appreciate them even more.
