Oh the Joys of a newborn. I just love these rare moments of squeaking, feeding, snuffling, little eyes blinking at the lights, faces, new sounds, the softness of touch of fingers and toes, the drinking of milk, the slurping noises to let mamma know that he wants some milk, the sleeping on my chest, the snuggling in at my neck. Oh I feel blessed to be witness and part of this gift of new life.
This blog reminds me to notice each moment and to live mindfully and slowly because this is the last time that I will be a part of this wonderment called living with a new born. Parenthood is such a gift, such a joy, such a wonder and to be really present and to just hang out with my new born is indeed a gift.
The fact that is it also such a exhausting experience makes me think that of course, by making us, the parents, exhausted makes us stay at home, take life slowly and enjoy what we have right in front of us. Unless of course they are howlers and then its another story!
