Baby, I promise you~*


m1

Baby girl...I know you are no longer a baby but I still love to caress and hold you like a baby.

You are getting so much bigger, heavier and taller now at 2 1/2 years old

You don't take a nap anymore during the day which makes mommy's day extra long with no break in between. Mommy gets to watch you 12 hours straight every weekend. Mommy loves to spend every second with you but mommy is tired

Mommy wants you to know that mommy can be mean at times because mommy has such short limits when tired and mommy is truly sorry.

Mommy wishes that she could have more energy to play wit you all day long and be your "better" playmate.

Mommy will keep trying to be a better mom for you. You have changed my life so much in a way I had never expected as a person. I didn't know I could love and care for someone this much in my life.

Mommy has learnt that life is short and it is important to cherish every moment. Mommy is truly blessed to have you in my life. Mommy remembers her promise to love you and to be patient with you. Mommy will continue to work to be a better mom for you.

  1. Aww....Nelah she is just too cute! I can't believe she's 2.5 and I thought you worked and had a nanny at home to take care of her! You are doing a fantastic job, and every mom goes through a exhausted phase where the fuse just gets a little.bit.short.... But it happens ;) (hug)

  2. Hi B.Inspired: boy do I wish I could afford to have a nanny 7 days. I work full time outside the house and am a full day mommy on weekends too. My husband has a crazy work schedules and works on weekends as well. I am somewhat a borderline single mom :(

  4. This has to be the most beautiful thing I have ever read. I feel like I am speaking to my own daughter who will soon be 2. It brought tears to my eyes because at times I know I can be a bit mean when I am tired and I hate when I yell at her because it makes me cry with her. I am trying so hard to be the best mommy to my baby especially now that she has a baby sister on the way. My love for my daughters is so strong that it is so amazing a few years ago I didn't know I could love so much. Thanks for this post because being a stay at home mom with my baby has made me more appreciative.

  6. Hi Victoria: thank you for sharing your heartfelt comment. I am not a stay at home mom but I know it is not easy either. As much as I love my daughter, I can't imagine taking care of my little one 24/7/365 non-stop. It is already as hard as it is even though she goes to daycare 3 days a week during weekdays. I think being a full time working mom is hard in a way that you have to so many things to focus on..career, child and household while stay-at-home moms doesn't have to deal with the stress of leaving the house and how to advance her career but watching a child all day plus keeping up with the chores continuously are so darn tiring. Kudos to all stay-at-home moms out there!

  10. Hi Nelah, once again, you've captured many of the emotions that we working moms face. As much as I love my kids, there are moments where I catch myself snapping and it bothers me to the point that my heart aches and I can't sleep at night. I've also realized that time away from the does make me a better mom, because I would probably go mental if I was with them 24/7- harsh but true. Thanks so much for the post. You are an awesome mom- you and your daughter are very lucky to have eachother.
