When I had my first child in 1992 this is what made me grow the most. I have learned so much from having children. It was no longer about what I wanted or needed but thinking of them first, what they need and want. I’m hungry? So what, that’ll wait this little person is hungry and is screamingly telling me how hungry they are. I’m tired, it’s 2 a.m.? So what this little person is hungry and needs soothing after eating, my sleep will wait. It is a humbling experience and great privilege to be a parent to my children along with my husband. To suddenly be thrust into a role where you are completely responsible for everything for this newborn child. You are responsible for keeping them alive. I’m tearing up just thinking about it. I do miss this time in their lives.
