Becoming "Mom"

I've been thinking a lot lately about how the mom I've become differs from the mom I've always thought I'd be.  I make different decisions than she does.  I am certainly more tired than her, and not quite as lovely.  She is like clothes that don't quite fit right, and as I go along I keep trying to alter my dress.  I think one day it will feel just right, and I will really be the mom I am meant to be. 

Or perhaps it is just a dream to think so, and motherhood is a constant learning process, where you always feel slightly off balance from where you want to be.

We're still on vacation, but when we return, oh the blogging I will do!  I miss it a lot. One thing I will say for sure, June makes friends wherever she goes.

She can say "go" and "eye" now.  And "burr" for bird.
