Great post! I might have to steal this idea…I'm not feeling terribly creative lately!

Glad your son is ok…there is nothing more terrifying.

Motherhood is challenging and rewarding! It's fun, messy, and exhausting!

There are days I wouldn't trade it for anything, and then there are days of past that I long for...being able to read on a plane or on a road trip.

Even when the road is bummpy Motherhood is the best thing ever!

Great list! My middle child threw up daily for the first 4 years of his life, that made me a Theta Mom really quickly.

I am very happy that your son is doing so well now. That must have been a terrible, nerve-wracking time for you and I'm glad it's behind you.

You're right on #5. I have a 17 year old and 3 year old twins, and the challenges are there at every age. The rewards are well worth it!

Love this post! I saw your Theta tag on a couple of blogs so I thought I'd check out the original. I'm glad I did!

I can so relate to your #1. While we knew what our son's problem was (complex heart defects), we spent nearly 3 years watching and waiting and treating assorted problems before he finally had his OHS. One of his cardiologists joked that the corner room on the 7th floor was our 'summer home'. lol

I love this list! Everything you've said is so true! Since my 2-yr old twins have started to talk more, life is a lot less frustrating now that they can tell me what they want or need.

I got tagged with this meme from Samantha and I'm looking forward to coming up with my list!
