Tomorrow will mark three years of me being someone’s Mommy. It is nearly impossible for me to believe it has already been three years. Just thinking about that day Greyson entered this world makes me get choked up. Owe, who am I kidding? I look at my Greyson every.single.day and tear up. I cry at just how amazing this little boy is. I still feel like I cannot catch my breath, and it has been three years.
Here he is just a few minutes old. Unbelievable.
I vividly remember everything from the moment I found out I as pregnant. (Valentines Day morning, 2010) right through his delivery. The whole pregnancy and birth was easy for me. There were never any difficulties, or concerns. I was beyond blessed. However, I do remember being worried that I would not have that life altering attachment when he was born. I felt awkward when I was pregnant, and never felt this overwhelming love for this fetus inside me.
Please, do not get me wrong. I /we were THRILLED beyond words to be having this child. He was planned, we were ready, we wanted this. But I felt weird when I was pregnant.
Thankfully, the moment, the first Nano second that my eyes saw him, all newborn wrinkled and crying and just a hot mess my entire world was flipped upside down. I loved him more than I could ever in my life imagine loving someone. There was and still is nothing I would not do for this child.
My sister in law came into the room right after he was born (then 3 months pregnant) I can remember the concern/fear/worry in her eyes waiting for me to tell her how it was. (It was also her first child she was carrying) and I said” “It was great, I would do it again right this second!”
This photo I love to hate. It is our first family photo so I love it, but I look like a zombie so I kinda hate it too.
And this is our most recent much less zombie-esq family photo.
So today I am working on the finishing touches for his 3rd birthday tomorrow and his birthday celebration on Saturday. I will do a full rundown of both, but here is a sneak peak of the birthday invitations.
Happy Birthday, Greyson! Momma loves you.
Happy (almost) Birthday, Greyson!
