Today I am participating in Five Minute Friday. This is where bloggers are given a prompt and we write for 5 minutes straight. Whatever comes to mind, freely and openly, and without editing.
Prompt: Belong
Motherhood is where I belong. Here we are 6 days out from my baby’s birth. I am starting to realize this is where I belong.
Crazy to think at one point in my life I never dreamed of belonging to the group of ladies that are titled mothers. Yet, now here I am in that group.
I belong to the group of ladies who have experienced long labors. I belong to the group of parents who have had their babies in the NICU. I belong to momma’s who sustain their child’s life with her own breast. I belong to the group of first time parents with worries. I belong to the moms who are squeezing in naps. I belong to the group of wives who are so thankful for their husbands and partners in this adventure.
I belong to motherhood! And what a fun, exciting time it has been so far! I am embracing belonging to each of these groups and looking forward to all that is to come!
What do you feel like you belong to?
Feel free to join us and link up on Five Minute Friday next week!
Until Next Time- Truly Love,
Cassie
I’m here from Five Minute Friday 🙂
Congratulations and welcome! Being a parent is spectacular…hard and exhausting, but so much more than you’ve ever dreamed. I don’t know what to write because all I can think about is that delicious new baby smell, the feeling of holding that tiny body close, and the depth of love in those first whirlwind days. So all I’m going to say is “enjoy”!
