Firsts

Over the past year Jack has had many firsts.

First bath.
First smile.
First laugh. 
First time sitting, crawling, standing, talking, walking.

It's been a year of accomplishments in my home and I couldn't be more proud. I'm also thrilled to say that there were many firsts for me mixed into the past year. 

Some to lament: 
First time changing a meconium diaper... Eww.
First time finding a gray hair and small wrinkles next to my eyes.
First time learning to operate on a seemingly-impossible little amounts of sleep.

And some to celebrate:

First time breast feeding.
First time holding my precious newborn.
First time getting to say "my son."
First time feeling my heart melt as my son accomplishes all of his firsts and all his days in between. 

Although I feel like I've learned more this year than I've ever learned in my adult years, I wouldn't change anything.
