My Promise to My Baby Girl as a (Wannabe) Mama Blogger
Dear Joey,
I think my biggest reservation in starting a blog about our life is that I don’t want it to take away a single day, hour, minute or second that I get to spend with you. My goal as a mom is to be the best and most present mama I can be for you (this doesn’t mean I won’t make mistakes) and for you to grow up knowing that you are my priority and you are what matters to me; your voice matters, every little sound you made as a 4 month old matters, every new word, skill, or cute thing you do now matters and every question, problem, tummy ache or tantrum you have in the years to come, MATTERS! And I don’t want this blog to take away from us, so I won’t let it.
And so, I promise:
To always put you first.
To be present.
To not write, check email, check views or post during our time.
To do all blog related things while you’re napping, after you go to bed at night, or before you wake up in the morning.
To always stop what I’m doing to hug, kiss, snuggle, listen to you, read to you and get down on the floor to play with you.
Last but not least, to stop if it ever is too much and takes away from us.
And with that promise, let’s see where this blog can take us, baby girl!
I love you more than you know.
xoxo,
mama
