Motherhood

 

 Today I really felt the greatness of being jobless. I ate a good breakfast, hung out in my leggings and over sized sweater, played in the tiny back yard with Jude, finished the hunger games and started the next book. Then I set up Jude's little wonderland and watched him push his cars around.
(I even started entering all my huggies diapers rewards codes online. Yes!)

I am feeling good because I am doing all the little things that I didn't have time for before. Cleaning out closets, making better meals, organizing, etc. I feel at home in my role as a housewife.

It's funny because I never really saw myself as a wife and mother. I knew it would happen someday but I wasn't one of those girls that said "I want to be a mom." I always had art in mind.
And now as I move into motherhood and pursue my domestic side, I feel so comfortable, and happy, and whole - as a person. Being a mother is such an amazing calling in life, I never knew how much I would love it.
