First the baby lives inside of you for nine months. Throwing up every morning, hot flashes, stretch marks, gaining weight, heartburn, food aversions, and all the other things that go along with being pregnant are not fun. Then birth...tramatic in all aspects. Then the sleepless nights and the crying that means something, but you don't know what. It is all really difficult.
But when Judah sees me across the room and smiles and then crawls over to me as fast as he can to be picked up, or when I get him out of his crib in the morning and he lays his head down on my shoulder, or when we're cuddling and he looks up at my face just to make sure i'm still there...this is what makes it all worthwhile.
For some reason when people talk about pregnancy or parenting, they only have negative things to say. Why don't people talk about the good moments? The good far outweights the bad.
I love being a mom. I love being pregnant. It is so worth it.
You all should have babies! (unless you're not married, then you should wait!)

you are a good mommy. i admire that. :)
Being a mom is the best thing I've ever done or ever will do. And the hardest. No one comes up to you at the end of the day and says, "good job mommy for changing that tenth diaper of the day!" or "way to go, Mom...you got a load of laundry done today AND made the bed!" or even better..."you've done such a fantastic job this year, here's a raise!" You just do it because you love it and you love your kids and there's nothing better than that.
seriously i'm having like nine children... and once they're out i'm sending them to my mother so she can raise them otherwise they'll be totally screwed up.
