The only word to describe those very first moments of mommy-hood is WONDER. Pure wonder!
Meeting the only person who's ever heard your heartbeat from the inside is a magical moment unlike any other – but how often do we take time out to honor and remember those first precious moments of motherhood?
The thing about babies is that they all grow up, and while there's joy every step of the way, there's something extra-special about those very first milestones…
#1. Meeting the only person who's heard your heartbeat from the inside is pure magic!
#2. It's hard to believe your body made another little body...and such a perfect one, too!
#3. From the very first time you hold your little one....
#4. ...You're filled to the brim with sheer wonder: how did THIS perfection come from ME!?
#5. This is easily the best kind of "first kiss" you'll ever get in your life!
#6. The same goes for hand-holding. Nothing else compares.
#7. It's hard to get over just how true the old saying is....good things really DO come in small packages.
#8. Part of being a mom is realizing that there's a strength inside of you that you never really knew existed!
#9. If you breastfeed, the achievement of getting your baby to latch will give you a victorious feeling that's absolutely BEYOND WORDS.
#10. If it's your second time around, you also quickly learn that love has the potential to multiply.
#11. And that something as tiny as a first tooth can bring you so much joy and so much wistfulness at the same time...they can only be little ONCE.
#12. Soon those teeny-tiny feet will be walking on their own...but you know you'll be able to guide them every step of the way.
