Gems In Motherhood!

I'm done. Mommy time is over for the night. Right? Wrong! Why? Because I hear little footsteps running around upstairs. No, I want to blog. I want to get it off my chest.
Now what? "Mommy she won't go to sleep and she just ran into your room." My room where the baby is asleep.....oh NO!
Ok, interupted (because Mommy time is never over) and frustrated I get up to see what's going on. I meet her in the hallway crying. Stop! Please be quiet I don't want the baby to wake up. She cries louder. I pick her up run into her room put her in her bed and say "quiet"!
I tuck her in and right when I turn to walk away she says "Mommy can you sleep with me". Ug! I reluctantly sit down on the floor next to her bed to sleep with her. My mind racing hoping not to forget what I wanted to write about but now it's all jumbled in my head not making any sense. Frustrated, frustrated, frustrated!!!
Right then I feel her little hand rub up and down my arm. It's so warm and feels so chubby. In that moment an overwhelming feeling of peace came over me. I smile and say to myself "that's it". That's what I'll blog about. The sacrifices of being a Mother and the priceless gems that come out of it.
Thanks for helping me to see the gems again TT!
