The best gift!

Having a baby is the best gift one can give oneself. 
It calls for a complete overhaul of one's body, a complete renewal of faith in your spouse and trust in your household helps. 
Finally you realise what your mum must have felt when you rebelled against her in those teen years. What your dad must've gone through when you returned home late- I'm still at the frustration of you're-not-eating- enough stage.
It's interesting to have a baby because you see the world in a new light. Suddenly mundane things like eating food take on a new meaning as you introduce the first morsel of solid food to your baby. All things surrounding you appear in a new light- the light of discovery through little eyes, framed by curly eyelashes. 
My daughter is just 5 months yet & these have been the best months of my life. 
As one of my friends- another new mommy- wrote in her blog- the baby happened so she could live- MY baby happened too, so I could re-live my life.
Love you, my baby!
