A while back we talked about the things you surprisingly get used to as a mother–but there are some things that no matter how many times you’re confronted with them, you never get used to them.
1. Never getting what you need (or not enough of what you need): Whether it’s time or personal space or your own dang bowl of ice cream
2. The awe in a child’s eyes at the sight of snow (even if it’s the fourth time today)
3. How quickly you go from the most important person in their life to the one they wouldn’t be caught dead with (and back again)
4. Never getting a vacation (you take trips, but those are just stress somewhere else!).
5. How hard it hits you during those amazing moments: you love this, and you love them.
What do you think? What will you never get used to as a mom?
One reply on “Things you never get used to as a mom”
Good ones!
6. Waking up not feeling rested.
7. How completely amazing I feel when one of my boys says, “you’re the best mommy ever!” or “you’re beautiful, Mommy” or “I love you.”
