Since having a baby I have felt a lot of ups and downs. It's so amazing to be a mom to this little angel that I have been waiting for a very long time. At the same time, no one can prepare any one for the amount of stress and life change that a bundle of joy can bring. I don't mean to make it sound like it is so hard, but I honestly feel like a single parent. I know that if Jake could be here it would be a million times easier, I am always so grateful when he comes home. I definitley know how hard it can be for single mommies to work and take care of a little one by their self, I have a lot of respect for them. I am just so lucky that I am able to stay home and do online classes with my baby monster. Jake and I have grown even closer since Reese was born. It's amazing at all the changes babies bring. She has softened his heart more than I have ever seen. It is so sweet and heartbreaking!
