Today Eli was having a NOT so good day. Poor baby, he's teething so badly. All he wants is to be held. I love that he needs mommy :)
Today I had an old friend stop by. I think it's been eight years since we last saw eachother, but it felt like it was just yesterday that we talked. We used to play club soccer and man was it nice talking about our old memories of our younger days. We laughed and laughed and man did it feel good to let it out. I haven't laughed like that in forever. She mentioned about joining an indoor soccer team. I would LOVE that..I don't remember the last time I kicked a ball, but gosh do I miss soccer. I hope next season I can play and have lil' Eli come cheer me on!! I gotta say, it was SO nice seeing her. She is truly one of the sweetest girls I have ever met and I'm so glad she is back in my life.
Before Eli, I was more of the person that would blow people off, or cancel my prior engagements. But now, I stick to my plans, go where I had planned and am not as scared or timid to follow through with people, like today. Usually I would have cancelled or told her if we can plan it for a later time and then never again contact her, but I didn't. I went through with our plans and am so happy I did. Eli has def. help me grow in that area. He has helped me let my guard down because I don't live for others I live for him, so the things that used to be embarrassing or not so fun no longer matter. I don't care what others think about me. It's crazy how a baby can affect your life in so many areas. I'm loving it. I feel like the person I am today hasn't been around in so long. I'm stronger. More courageous. Confident. Happier. More loving. I have a strength that I didn't encompass before. I love this new me. I'm so thankful for my lil' chunkers. He has made such a new person out of me.
