at last
I was sitting on my nursing/rocking chair last night, lullabying JamesIsk to sleep when my older son JR came to join me. So there we were, all 3 - rocking slowly on the cushy chair. JamesIsk looking at me with his glazed half sleepy gaze, and JR snuggling up under my other arm ready to fall asleep, saying 'mom, nap...nap'.That moment right there was me in my supreme happiness.
At last, the medication i have been taking daily, is working its miracle. I looked down on my children, especially my 4 month old baby..and thought to myself how i wished i hadnt waited 4 long months before doing something about my post partum depression. we could have bonded from Day1.
but its never too late to fall in love with your child, as i did with mine.
*****************************
I have been off runnnig the last 10 days because of my injured ankle. I worked my limbs too hard doing 5K runs on the outdoor tracks 2 days in a row..for a novice like me, that was too much strain on my ligaments. such a wimp that i am.
my race is this Saturday. we're expecting a snowstorm and strong winds. i still want to make it to the race and just finish it - even if it takes 4 hours to complte 5K. that way, it will be super darn easy to beat my time from this race in my next race next month. and i hope all i catch is the runnnig bug, and not pneumonia.
*****************************
I've been teaching JR names. In case he goes missing at our local playground, he can tell somebody who his mommy is.
So now the kid calls me 'Jooooon', instead of 'mom'. That obviously has to change.
He also need to pronounce his name better. Right now he calls himself 'Don'.
********************************
He's a video of JamesIsk's first rice cereal feding..wow how time flies. soon he'll be tucking into a piece of juicy steak. Mommy's little helper..unfortunately, got tired of all the crying and decided to just walk away.
