*Sappy Post Alert*

Do yourself a favor and read this blog post if you haven't already. Bad Ass is the only way I would describe that mom.
Although I don't at all relate to her as my son is *almost* 16 months old, I sadly have already heard comments regarding my BABY when I take out his pink sippy cup (it was the only one they had!), when I let him wear mardi gras beads, and was recently ridiculed because he doesn't own any trucks. Ok ridiculed is a slight exaggeration. BUT to those who think that girls should play with Barbies and boys with guns- keep eating your own boogers.

Totally sappy and not my style, but damn it makes me teary eyed every time I read it.
Before I was a Mom,
I never tripped over toys
or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not
my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.
Before I was a Mom,
I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind
and my thoughts.
I slept all night.
Before I was a Mom,
I never held down a screaming child
so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night
watching a baby sleep.
Before I was a Mom,
I never held a sleeping baby just because
I didn't want to put him down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces
when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small
could affect my life so much.
Before I was a Mom,
I didn't know the feeling of
having my heart outside my body..
I didn't know how special it could feel
to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond
between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small
could make me feel so important and happy.
Before I was a Mom,
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night
every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth,
the joy,
the love,
the heartache,
the wonderment
or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much,
before I was a Mom .
