Transforming


From the baby I had 5 years ago to the little boy who is growing right in front of my eyes.
Last I checked he was 42 lbs. Could not get past 42 lbs for so long, my sweet slender child. Suddenly, one doctor visit later and he is 44 1/2 lbs! Growing and changing and becoming, a big boy.
This wonderful, funny, sociable, sharp, and just amazing kid is transforming right in front of my eyes, from a little one into a boy.
I wanted a kid like him my whole life.
I dreamed of him, and thought I would be the luckiest person in the world to have a kid like him.
And I do.
All I have ever wanted to be is a mother. Never talked about being a wife. I conceived this little one when they put two, only two embryos in me, and one took. I think about God's master plan-because Aidan truly is the child I was meant to have, the child I was meant to raise and cherish. The child who was to come into my life who makes me laugh every day with his charm. He warms my heart and soul.
I am transforming into a mom of a boy, a bigger kid who will be startng kindergarten soon. Just yesterday he was a nursing infant, soon he will be walking out of my home. I am excited for the changes the next year will bring, the starting of a new era in our life, my boy starting school.
A transformation indeed.

My little baby just turned 3. He has definitely become a boy--no trace of little toddler. I am going to continue reading your blog to see what I can expect. It took me forever to get used to being the mom of a baby (the one I had dreamed of for 20 years)--not sure how I'll handle all the upcoming changes!
