3. I am gentler with my body. He is a miracle and it took 33 years to understand that. It would still be nice if I could fit more than 10% of my clothes again at some point.
4. I am more patient – especially with you. I know the baby isn’t crying to annoy me, but because he can’t communicate any other way. If I lose patience quickly, it won’t be with you.
5. I worry more. I used to worry too, but now it has taken on a whole new dimension because nothing scares me more than the fact that something could happen to you.
6. I am less informed than before. Because – unlike before – I find it hard to bear what’s happening in the world at the moment and I can’t help but ask myself: what kind of world have I put you in?
7. I take fewer photos of myself – and more of you!
8. I perceive nature more consciously. While the seasons used to just happen, I notice the changes much more clearly on our walks together. The changes in the leaves, the different birds and the sunsets. I enjoy all of this on our walks together and can’t wait to show you everything: the trees, the birds and letting you touch snow for the first time. I’m already thinking about all those moments while you’re sleeping through the night in the stroller.
