I Believe I am a good mother.

I believe I am a good mother. Granted my son is only 4 1/2 months old and can't tell me if I am or not, but I think I am. My son is the world to me. I couldn't ask for anyone better. He is an absolute blessing me to me and I can't believe God would grant me a child such as him. I try and do what I feel is right for him. I have learned pretty fast that listening to everyone else is sometimes the worse thing you can do. My mom has taught me that you have to do what feels right it will come to you. Every mother is different and every baby as well. My son is attached to me. He is a complete mommy's boy. I could let my husband hold him and all he wants is me. We named him Liam. Liam sleeps with us most of the time. He is pretty set on liking mommy and daddy's bed best. He seems to be a pretty happy baby for the most part, except for when he is teething. My mom says you can tell I am a great mother just by the way I act with him. When he cries half the time I cry with him. I can't stand it when he is upset and I don't know what is wrong. I have alot to learn and it will take time. For the most part I think I am doing very well. Liam is pretty advanced for his age I have been told. He already sits up straight and holds his head up completely. He was rolling over at 2 weeks old. He can hold a bottle by himself. He says momma in a sort of gibberish way, but you can tell what he is saying. I would give the world to him if I could. I can't not even explain how much he means to me. I suppose this post is more about how I believe my son is wonderful not that I am a good mother. I just can't stop talking about how great he is. I suppose that kinda ties in with being a good mother. Liam is sitting on my lap right now watching me write this. He is so content and calm. He just got down screaming while his daddy tried to calm him down. I suppose it's just a mother's touch that can calm her baby. I never thought I could love someone this much like I do my son. It is a love I can't explain one that exceeds any love I have ever felt. I now know how my parents have felt about me and my siblings.
