*Sigh*
It's taken me five months to write this and honestly if it wasn't Mother's Day, i'm not sure I would be writing it now.
But when I started reflecting on being a mom and what that means to me, the first thing I thought about was the day I became one and how it was nothing I ever imagined it would be. How scared I was and how in the days after I wasn't even sure I would make it home to be with my daughter...let alone make it to my first Mother's Day.
I'm writing this for moms-to-be so you always remember to advocate for yourselves throughout your pregnancy and birth and for moms who have gone through this, to know you are not alone.
So, here we go...my birth story.
IT'S T-MINUS 4 DAYS UNTIL MY FIRST MOTHER'S DAY!
*Insert scream here*
I'm still stuck in some level of denial about it all, like my baby is 5 months. I have been a mother for FIVE MONTHS and the one holiday i've looked forward to celebrating myself for more than half my life is right around the corner.
Chile and I still not prepared >_<
I'm sure you're like "Deanna, how are you not prepared? It's your day." Girl yes but I still have a mom, still have women to get gifts for. And I am the queen of last minute shopping and this holiday is no different.
So assuming you are like me i've compiled a list of Last minute Mother's day gift ideas to get you through the holiday, but wont leave you looking cheap and thoughtless.
