Becoming "one of those"...Congratulation! Becoming "one of those" is only one of the many amazing changes that your (adorable) baby will bring about.

You do become one of those people, and th...Agreed!! You do become one of those people, and that's okay. You should. In about a year or two, slowly, you (and your body and that visceral gut reaction) realize that you can be mom and Larissa all at once, with fewer compromises. You will still rip out someone's throat with their bare teeth, but you'll do it while growling out a new song you wrote, on stage wearing the clothes you always wore and drinking the beer you always drank (but the song will be about your baby, of course). I think that happens when your baby becomes a little girl, with her own independent thoughts, actions, and sassyness. It reminds you that you, too, were sassy, and that you ought to get back to the business of being sassy tout de suite. And THEN, you get to be sassy together, which is the BEST. But for now, you're EXACTLY where you're supposed to be.<br /><br />And I want MORE photos!!!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02883302770811793814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12008527.post-61960126555398339362011-09-02T09:59:19.905-05:002011-09-02T09:59:19.905-05:00thanks dana!thanks dana!larissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00412483308804385817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12008527.post-60679148745420934602011-09-02T09:06:49.227-05:002011-09-02T09:06:49.227-05:00I tell people all the time that what I expected le...I tell people all the time that what I expected least when I gave birth was the complete visceral response of "I will rip your throat out WITH MY BARE TEETH if I even THINK you might want to harm this living thing that came from my body" with in the first seconds of touching my baby for the first time- it was the beginning of becoming one of those people. Just wallow in it, because soon she will grow into her own person and you will get yourself back, though it won't fit the same. But for now, she is your world, and that's really ok. You earned it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
