You've beautifully stated what motherhood is, thank you. I'm passing this onto my friends, we may be past the first year, but we are now seeing the fruits of our labour.

I'm still working but I cut back to part time, still, I feel like no matter how hard I'm working I'm just wasting my time. It could be so much better spent with my son. Still, I beat myself up for wanting that. Like I'm selfish or undriven. Even though I know in my heart it's really the opposite. This really helped me feel better about the idea.
