eight months

You might be the mother of an eight month old if you find cheerios in strange places. 
 Sometimes when your baby isn't even around...
You might be the mother of an eight month old if, upon catching a whiff of something bad, 
you check under your arms before checking your baby's diaper because showers
 don't always make it to the top of the to-do list.
You might be the mother of an eight month old if you can't believe
she's already crawling, standing and walking herself around furniture.
You might be the mother of an eight month old if you're learning very
 quickly that baby locks are not for decoration.

 You might be the mother of an eight month old if you spend your days
 singing songs and reading books to little ears that love to learn.
You might be the mother of an eight month old if you are learning to look 
at the world with wonder and excitement, just like she does.
 You might be the mother of an eight month old if you can't imagine life much better than it is now.  
...if you wonder how life ever seemed complete without her.
 and you just might be the mother of an eight month old if you thank God every day 
for the best eight months that He has ever given you.
