Enough

I recently had a conversation with an old and dear friend of mine, and he has been pretty out of the loop for a while. I had to fill him in on my baby issues, and he gave me an interesting thought. He told me to stop stressing (which I am, significantly) and that when it's supposed to happen, it will. He also told me this: that I'm already a mom. I'm a mom to my friends by caring so much about them and their well being, I'm a mom to Andy and Jared right now (my roommates) by helping them when they needed it. I'm a mom to him, by helping him and supporting him in his life.
I was kind of struck by it, because it's true. I totally understand what he meant. For me right now, I feel more like a mom like it is now than I did while I was pregnant. I thought this was food for thought, and I wanted to make sure I got it out there.
