This motherhood thing … no one ever told me it was the little things that would get my attention … feeling overwhelmed at getting a social security card that I was responsible for … when a baby actually slept like … a baby … that Alex starting to wave would make me so excited (oh yeah, Alex started waving over the weekend … towards himself, but I think it counts.)..
