Once upon a time

I just chowed down at least three slices of turkey in preparation for this blog post, and there are fish sticks in the toaster oven. (Yes, still exclusively breastfeeding. 6 months and going strong!) These days, I eat more than my husband does. "Honey, are you really still hungry?"

"Yes, I'm starving."

"Wow, I just can't relate."

If we were newly married, I honestly would have been mortified.

ANYWAY, I decided to start a blog, with a little bit of encouragement from my wonderful friends. I don't know how anyone starts a "Mommy blog" before their baby is 6 months. Please tell me when there is time.

{Motherhood} is an unbelievably rewarding, completely fulfilling, endlessly motivating, FULL-TIME JOB. I will never think any differently. It can be quite a roller coaster ride of emotions. I never imagined I would be able to love in this way before...or cry in this way before...or want to buy a pair of boxing gloves in this way before. I'm thankful for my shoulder to lean on, my best friend, my husband. He's awesome. If I have to buy boxing gloves one day, thank the L-RD I have someone on my team.

I don't really know where this blog will go or how many people will actually read it, but I have to say that I'm quite excited about writing again. I miss seeing my thoughts on paper.

Thanks for your interest in my life. That's not sarcastic, I'm serious.
