New Beginnings In The Tunnel Of Life

Learning To Be A Mom

****SAGE***

Micah cries from his crib upstairs, and Ash goes to get him, "I got it this time Babe."

Ash looks at me worried, "You sure?"

I smile and nod, making my way upstairs to the nursery. As soon as Micah spots me he quiets down a bit, and I pick him up, placing him on the changing table. Changing his diaper, and before I put his shirt back on I kiss his tummy. Micah coos in response and I smile, a click of a camera on the phone goes off.

Turning my head to see Ash in the doorway with his phone out, with a grin on his face.

Ash walks toward us and I hold Micah's finger, "Definitely captured the most precious moment."

I giggle, "Well except for the fact that I look like I just woke up."

Ash kisses my forehead, "You're beautiful all the time."

Micah coos watching both of us standing over him, and Ash finishes by helping get him dressed.

Ash kisses me softly holding Micah in his arms, "Baby, go shower and take a minute for yourself. I will watch him while you get ready for visitors."

I kiss Micah's forehead, "Thank you babe. Tell Summer when she gets back from the grocery store to come upstairs."

Ash nods and I head to our room thankful for a minute to shower. Getting into the shower and letting the water run over me, my body is definitely still different. Though I am so thankful for it, it gave me Micah.

After washing up and stepping into my room with my towel wrapped around me, Summer looks up from her phone on the bed.

She smiles heading to my closet, "What color are you feeling today mama?"

I tap my chin sitting down on the bed, "Something blue, and make sure it's comfortable."

Summer pulls out some black soft leggings and a loose blue shirt for me, walking back into the bathroom. I get dressed and head back into the room sitting at my makeup table, while Summer comes over and brushes my hair.

I close my eyes, she won't accept it but I still think she has fingers like heaven.

Summer sprays something in my hair brushing it out, " Your hair is always so soft. I wish my hair was as soft as yours."

I giggle and pull out my phone, "Thank girl, do you just wanna braid it back for today?"

Summer nods and gets to work braiding my hair for me, and I put a bit of makeup on so I don't look so tired. Finishing up and as we head downstairs, Micah is doing his hungry cry.

Walking over to the couch and sitting down next to Ash, "My beautiful queen looks refreshed for the day."

"I do thanks to you for giving me a moment."

I kiss Ash softly on the lips and take Micah into my arms to feed him, and he latches on quickly. One thing I was not prepared for was how sore your nipples can get breastfeeding but Summer has given me such tips to help.

As Micah feeds, and Ash covers him up with the cover up in case anyone walks in.

Ash rubs my shoulders, "I think Tryston and Trish should be here soon, they said they were bringing us lunch."

Zach is laying back on the couch with a napping Malachi, "Yes I believe they were picking up sandwiches for everyone."

Summer lays her head on Zach, closing her eyes, "Sandwiches sound amazing today. However, I think I could just nap right here with Malachi."
