Mommy's Conundrum
Ang hirap pala magka-anak, no? You're torn between excitement and anticipation and dread, wanting them to grow up fast and wanting them to stay a baby forever. I'm hearing from friends and acquaintances who have kids about how they're doing in school, the anecdotes they're sharing about teaching them things and the experiences they're having together. And I'm looking forward to the day when we can help Darcy with homework and go places with him. At the same time, I don't want him to grow up too fast. I'm not looking forward to him talking back to me. Maybe when he's all grown up, he won't want to hug or kiss me because he'll be embarrassed.
