Motherhood
I lie on the couch and try to get some rest while my newborn is finally asleep, while my toddler plays on the floor beside me. My ears are filled with sirens, not real, but from a toy. Man, I miss silence. What I would give for a nap without the white noise of toys being thrown in the background and the wet blanket of breast milk I now have on tap. I lay still, almost in a peaceful state of mind. WHACK!! You have got to be kidding me! I jump up as my toddler has just walked up and assaulted my temple with an ambulance. “We don’t hit people with trucks,” I say. That's a phrase I never thought I’d say in my life. This is my reality now. Once a bright, organized young adult, now a mobile milk dispenser with toddler counseling abilities. This is motherhood, folks, and I’m here to tell you the good, bad, heartfelt, and ugly parts that come with it.
