The joys of Motherhood ;)

Its amazing how you just so happy to be woken at 4am in the morning. Geez, before, somebody would wake me and I'd be miserable, needless to say, dont wake a sleeping Sonja. Over the past two months I have come to appreciate children so much more. They dont bring joy to your house, they add, they add so much joy to your already joyful house. People often get that one wrong. They think kids fix situations, it doesnt work that way, they can only add to an already existing one or bring out something that was a bit hidden.....

Thomas Lietch was born on the 28th September at 18:01pm after 17 hours of excruciating pain. Was it worth it? Most definately. He is laying on my chest, bum on the desk and sleeping, so beautiful, so peaceful, so tiny, smelling of baby, and he is all mine. What a great gift God has given me. I can now understand why mothers do not want to go back to work. The older they get, the cuter they become. He has conversations, smiles, laugh's, makes funny little sounds, that must be his way of speaking. I just want to eat him up because he is so cute and gorgeous.

Its a real adjustment to the system having a baby, but such a good adjustment at that. He has gone on his first outting to Mykonos already. December he is going tent camping. Its just all so exciting. Before i know it, he will be jumping into my bed at 6 in the morning, "Mommy, i want to watch toons" hhheheheeheh. I cant believe I have a little boy, a little person that for the rest of his life will depend on me. It doesnt ever stop, we always need our parents for something, it doesnt all have to be materialistic. He is going to need me for something for the rest of his life. He must just not think Im gonna bail his little ass out of jail ;) No drinking and driving for him and thats final!

All I want to do is kiss him. He is mine, still something that needs to sink in, he is actually mine. After I was told that me having a baby isnt going to be as easy as other women, I actually had one. It was easy, but the birth, o my, that made up for the easy pregnancy 10 - 0!!! All worth it!! Will I do it again? Most probably and normal again, considering the epidural wore off, next time, I might as well not bother ;) Woulda been nice to have no pain, but anyway.......all over, ha ha

Im off to make myself a cup of tea, its 7:22 in the morning and Im wide awake, think Ill start working at 5 in the morning instead of 10. What do I do till 10 in the morning??

Motherhood, the essence of a woman.......or so i feel!

Thomas.....wow...
