Mommy Realization

So, although I am nervous about being a mom of two (any advice from all you mommies of two or more would be greatly appreciated) I did realize something of great importance today. I think that I actually might be a better mom of two than I was at one (at least in one aspect). I am so aware of making sure Hannah doesn't feel neglected or replaced that I am more attentive to her needs and playing with her.

Now when she asks to play a game or read or blow bubbles I think to myself "you go and do it, so she knows you love her and the baby hasn't taken all my attention" whereas before I would play with her but sometimes I would say "just one second Hannah, let me finish this" or "play with yourself and I will join you in a minute".

I might be showing my faults as a mom, but it came to me today that being a mom of two children might be increasing my willingness to try and be even a better mom than before. Just something that I learned today, thought I would share.
