Once a woman becomes a mom privacy becomes as elusive as the Loch Ness Monster. Sometimes you may think it's close enough to have, but in reality it doesn't exist.There's nothing like becoming a mother and carrying a baby for nine months. The morning sickness, weight gain, the swelling and then there's labor. And that's only the beginning of the joy.
Don't get me wrong, I love my three children more than anything. I can't remember life before them. I even remember the days when my oldest was an infant and how I just knew I could never allow her out of my sight….not even for a second. The first 'date night' after Meg was born was horrible. "Look Who's Talking" was playing in theaters. Yeah, that's a great movie to go to when you're missing your own baby.
My husband consoled me as I bawled through the entire thing.Meg will soon be 23 and Nate is 21. I don't think moving them to college was as traumatic for me as the first night we had a sitter. Mainly because I knew they were smart and strong and were worthy of trust in making their own decisions.Sure, body washes promise an escape but that's all crap. "Lose yourself in a tropical paradise. Petals and extracts will caress your body with silky, soothing lather and the fragrance will ease all the worries from your mind."
