Raw and Honest Blog of a New Single Mom

I am a single mother of a biracial baby boy just trying to make it on my own. This journey is hard, yet rewarding. Blogging is my therapy, these words are my heart, and people doing better and being inspired by what I have written is my passion and hope.

I want my little boy NOW. I want him in my arms. I want to look at his sweet little face. I want to kiss him and cuddle him and tell him how much I love him.

He’s so active lately. SO active! Dancing around in my tummy .. kicking me, punching me, squirming around and bumping his head against me. And I love every minute of it.

He’s reacting to noises now. Some music he does not like, some he does. Sometimes he’ll react when I talk to him. If he’s being fussy he’ll settle down when I sing to him. He’s going to be the raddest little boy ever.

I can’t wait to show him off, show him around, dress him up, show him the world. He’s my new little partner, my sidekick.

Mommy loves you, Giovanni (aka JackJack). Very, very much.

    I think all motherly excitement is contagious because I read about you guy’s with your little boys and the little things you do with them and it makes me all the more anxious! Like one day I was reading about you giving J a bath … a freakin bath! and I was like “Awww I wanna bathe my little angel too..” LOL!

    I’m 24 weeks now .. which is I don’t know how many months. 6 I guess? I can’t wait to get the remainder of it over with!

    Am and I used to listen to American Idol. She’d kick at the people who couldn’t sing and calm down when they could. I know I got a -kick- out of it.

    See that pun there? I did that. ^_^

    lol @ Satsuki

    Being a mom is an incredibly awesome and amazing thing!
    There is nothing else like it.
    But enjoy being pregnant while you can :) It’s just as amazing an experience but you only have another 16 weeks to enjoy it!
    When J finally came along I was ecstatic but the second night after he was born I found myself missing his little kicks :)

    Satsuki – LOL your daughter will have a knack for music when she gets older thats for sure. I don’t know if my son can tell about singing, but if he doesn’t like a beat he will let me know it!

    Nicole – I’m not sure I will miss being pregnant. I kinda hate it! The only thing I like is knowing my little boy will be here soon.

    I miss being pregnant! Reading about your pregnancy is giving me the fever! And then thinking about a new-born… oooh, my.

    Thank goodness for birth control!

    LOL that's the same thing I would say to people BEFORE I got pregnant. I would see other moms and think "Aww I want that" then I would think of all that comes with it and then I would be like NEVERMIND!!!

    Who knows maybe someday I will miss having the little soccer player in my belly again.

    Wow- I meant the "thank goodness for birth control" thing because I'm afraid I might one day decide to have another baby on an "accidently-on-purpose" impulse. Which, of course, would NOT be good.

    The newborn days were my absolute favorite (it's these toddler times that are wearing me down). I get so baby-ferverish when I see newborn babies.

    I bet you will miss the baby kicks one day.

    Happiness is contagious in the sense that mother can relate your story tale. You have to wait for that day.
