RE: How it is like to become a parent - A personal blog post.

I love your family!

When I first held my daughter, I felt the whole universe in my arms. The whole future of humanity, for good or bad, hinged on my little person.

I changed as a human being.

I had done a lot of things in my life, went off to college, moved away from home, even became a missionary (when my whole focus was on serving others). None of these changed me fundamentally.

When I became a mom, something shifted and clicked inside of me. I was different, MORE, than I ever had been.
