My little boy was just two weeks old when Mother\u2019s Day rolled around. I\u2019d been out of hospital (my birth story<\/a>)<\/em> over a week and was very much in the middle of that delightful newborn bubble. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was happy, content and investing my time and energy into learning how to feed my tiny little baby. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bliss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suddenly it was Mother’s Day. My family don’t live close by but luckily my mum and sister were visiting us that weekend. I had to take things slow and life with X was still very new but we had such a nice time together. My mum does so much for my sister and I so it was lovely to spend time together on such a special day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phil arrived home that evening and handed me a card from X. It was then that it finally hit me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m a mum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A mum to a beautiful little boy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a son.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\"Flowers<\/a>\n\n\n\n

That evening I took a step back from everything and realised what a miracle our bodies truly are. It had all been go<\/em> since the moment X was born. I had a tiring few days in hospital, I didn’t even bother trying to sleep after the first night and when we finally got home it was all about learning to feed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I felt so lucky to have my nearest and dearest around me as well as a tiny new addition to our family. It’s funny, but even at that point it felt like X had always been a part of my life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\"Mother's<\/a>\n\n\n\n

The team at Marks & Spencer in Sheffield sent the beautiful tulips in the photos to me – thank you<\/em>. They arrived a few days before Mother’s Day and stayed fresh for almost 2 weeks. It was such a lovely treat and they really brightened up the kitchen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
