It's my first Mother's Day, and someone gave me the best compliment recently that made me feel like I'm doing my job.
Jono's Grandma Holtvluwer took one look at Jude last week and asked me what I was feeding him. I answered that he was still eating only breastmilk. She replied, "My goodness, he is thriving on that!" I probably flushed with pleasure when I heard her say it.
I know all mothers get milk, and most mothers feed it to their babies, but there was something about that comment that made me feel good, even if it doesn't make me unique. All those night-time feedings have been worth it.
Here's to moms everywhere. Pay us in cheeks!
