Mom

This mother's day hit me pretty hard that I am actually a mom.... I know that sounds dumb. But I have a child who calls me mom and relies on me to care for her! I often think about how I have literally seen Lexie every day for her whole life... not a single day has gone by where I haven't seen her and gotten her dressed and fed her breakfast and taken care of her. I think about my relationship with my mom and how she has raised me to be who I am today and I can call her my best friend and I get so excited for the relationship I have developed so far with Lexie. Anyway enough with that little rant...
Yesterday was such a great day and I loved feeling extra special from my little family. Jake got me some shopping gift cards and we also got memberships to this club/gym this past weekend that we are really excited about! Some of Jake's friends who works with him came over and I made a yummy Sunday dinner and it was fun having people over to our new little apartment. Lexie made me a cute little craft from nursery and she was so excited to give it to me..even though she probably had no clue what it even was for.
I absolutely LOVE being a mom and there is nothing in the world I would rather be doing.... as hard as some days are and as frustrated as a little 1 year old can make me she also has the capability to melt my heart in a matter of seconds and that makes it all worth it.
