Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself

Reflecting on the "about me" page I created ufff, desde cuando, I find myself amazed at the person I was then to the one I am now. This blog was started in the early winter months of 2013. I was a newly engaged woman, with the whole world ahead of my fiancĂ© and I. I have to admit, I enjoy going back and reading the posts I've shared. It takes me back to "simpler" times lol. I even found a draft post I didn't get to publish on what I had yet to accomplish before my big 3-0.

I consider myself well traveled, creative and blessed beyond measure with friends and family most people only dream of. But there's something missing...

Since my last entry in Jan '14, I've had several ups and a few downs. The big moments I anticipated (getting married, turning 30) came and went -  but the most life-altering moment I had yet to experience, came with the birth of my son, Zolin. He's close to 10 months old now. And I still can't find the words that capture his amazingness and what he means to me. I'm the mom that sleep-stares lol. I honestly can't believe he's mine sometimes.

What I thought I knew about love can't even compare to the love I know now. I find myself striving to become a better person, for him. To be more ambitious, for him. More patient, for him. To live purposefully, for him. And though he may never truly know how much of an inspiration he is to me, I will die a happy mom if he simply strives to do the same as a person.

So, does this make me a mommy blogger? Not exactly. It just means you get a more mature version of me. You get Daisy 2.0.

Oh, and the thing that's "missing"... well, we're just going to have to figure that out together.
