I love being home with my son, I wouldn't trade it for the world.

I didn't have a child so someone else could raise him. I feel like I'm his mother, and I should be raising him you know? And I love it. I love that he gets to sleep until he's done sleeping. He goes to bed on a schedule. He naps at the same time every day, and in the same place. He knows what to expect. Consistency I think is important to children.

I love that I've been there for every first, every important moment, every funny thing he does. I love that I'm the one he wants when he's sick, or hurt.

I love that I'm never too tired to play with him. I don't have to worry if he's taken care of or not. The thought of sending him to daycare absolutely terrifies me. Putting the care of my child into the hands of strangers and simply having blind faith in them to protect and console him. Take care of him, treat him well. There are so many horror stories out there every day about people abusing children. It just scares me. I'm so thankful that I don't have to worry about that, and that I get to spend my days with the cutest little boy ever!
