I took a walk with my sweet daughter today. That precious newborn you're snuggling will turn into an awesome big kid. So yes, it does goes fast; so incredibly fast. And every stage is hard and good mingled together. Love that newborn/baby/toddler/kid/teen, you find in front of you and be gentle with yourself. Motherhood is the most wonderful thing I have ever experienced and is absolutely the hardest thing I have ever done. It is so easy to get overwhelmed or to be to hard on yourself and expect yourself be a perfect mom or to expect your child to be the same version of themselves at 5 and 10. We all change, grow and shift. You will change, grow and shift as a mother and they will be a baby that grows into a child that grows into an adult. Allow space for these changes and shifts in both you as the mother and for your precious child too.
And go on walks and dates and just enjoy each other's company because what sweet moments this child/parent relationship has in store for you 💗
