Being a mom is . . . well . . . it is everything. It has completely changed, not only my life, but my whole perspective on life. Jer and I will sometimes reminisce on the five years we had together before babies. We miss being able to just leave and go out to eat or to the grocery store or to the movie. We miss staying up late and sleeping in. We miss spending money on anything we want. We miss quality time together.
But, we have completely realized that those five years, while wonderful, were nothing compared to this.
Our lives had no importance. Nothing we did mattered to anyone but us. While we did love that time together, it really didn't mean much.
Now, our lives mean so, so much more. Our lives have meaning. Our lives are important. Kaiah makes them that way.
And it is the best thing in the world.
