Motherhood

I saw one of my favorite sights of spring this morning on my way to work. A mama bird teaching her baby how to fly. You've seen it before, haven't you? The mom and baby are flying along and the baby rests for a few seconds on his mom's back. She lets him but then she flips him back in the air again. This year, it inspired me more than it ever has in the past. I guess because in 2 short months, I'm going to be that mama.

I'm excited about motherhood. But I'm equally nervous. I'd like to think I'll be a good mom. I know I sure have a good mom. I hope that I take after her. I'm really not sure what to expect. Do all new mothers have these feelings? I can't believe this journey is about to start. I better hang on, because one thing I am sure of is that it will be quite a ride!
