Enjoy Your Baby: Time Flies

Time goes fast, even for a mother.  And even if your baby is in your arms now and needs you to survive, it’s good to be aware that everything is changing, and anything can happen.

The day when your baby starts sleeping alone will come, when he starts being able to talk and tell you what hurts, and quickly comes the day when your baby does not want to stay home with you and prefers to go out with his friends instead.

Sooner or later a baby leaves the nest, so enjoy your baby now. Appreciate these beautiful moments and love your child, even when you have to resort to breathing exercises because it constantly requires your attention.

Take advantage of the time when your child is still a baby, because time will run through your fingers if you spend the time complaining and focusing on the negative.

Enjoy how your baby smells, the cute little face and how peaceful it is when it sleeps like an angel. Learning to grow with your children, understand their needs and meet them will help you capture the day while they are still children.

Make it so that you do not feel that your child has suddenly grown up without you noticing it. You have been by their side to follow them during their various stages of life.

A battle against the clock – time flies

Of course, all mothers and fathers are happy that their children are born and they enjoy having the children in their lives. On the other hand, the responsibility of taking care of a family and working, on top of all the challenges that come with parenting, makes the experience less fun.

This is understandable as a constant routine can deprive us of our peace of mind and ability to live in the present to enjoy ourselves.

Time, an abstract concept that distinguishes us as a species, can sometimes play a prank on us; we lose track when we just focus on irritations and miss the beautiful moments we share with our babies as they grow, step by step, to become an adult.

Take advantage of the time you have to share all the moments of play, laughter, frustration, tears, joy and development with your child.

Share your days, nights, hugs and kisses. Encouragement and communication are invaluable. Part of your mission as a mother is to participate in your child’s life, and thus they become an active participant in your life.

Enjoy the here and now, for time flies

Being present for most of your baby’s life is one of the best gifts you can get as a mom. Always remember that even if there are hard days and moments, they pass quickly and whatever tests your patience right now is only one phase and will pass. Everyone will do it.

Moms, do your best to enjoy your babies. Evaluate the little things every day and be understanding to be able to take advantage of every phase of your baby’s development. Do not miss anything. Each stage is unique, wonderful and gives you a chance to grow in the same mysterious and beautiful way as your baby grows.

Even if the job is demanding, you do not get much laundry done or have to pick up toys, find the time to talk to your children, hug them, understand how they feel and what they worry about, look them in the eye and keep them close your chest where they always have a place to cuddle, no matter how old they are.

Whatever step of life you experience with your baby, it will always be your baby, so remember how important it is to be sensitive to what is happening, how important it is to be present and active, and how important it is to enjoy of every day.

Do not forget, your children will not be children forever. What you do today, whether big or small, has an important impact on their future. So try to be happy with them.
