Words of Inspiration for New Moms

New moms have so much to look forward to and so much to learn about how to adapt to a new role that it is sometimes hard to live in the present. The new role of Mom comes very easy to some women and not so easy to others, but as moms, we are all being faced with the same challenges and being given the same opportunities to grow.
A new role of any kind presents a challenge and provides new excitements. When that role is being a new mom, the challenges seem less daunting because the reward is so great. Seeing your child smile for the first time or take first steps, or say a word you have been trying to teach for months is so rewarding that the fact that you are more tired than ever and have a hundred things added to your to do list do not even matter.
Before you were a mom, you may have had some career goals and strived for your personal best at the local charity 5K race. When you become a mother, the things you look forward to the most become all about your child. The typical selfish goals of doing well in that race or getting the promotion turn into looking forward to your baby rolling over and crawling. Long term you may be looking forward to your son running track or your daughter playing field hockey.
It is nice to have all these things to look forward to. It is nice to want good things for your children. Remember to try to live in the present though. Enjoy the time you have with your child as an infant and toddler. The time goes by fast and it is easy to miss it if you are too busy looking ahead.
