Firstly, I can't quite believe that here we in April already. Secondly, this is the month that my little boy (my eldest, but still little) turns four years old, and I honestly can't quite believe that either.

It amazes me and gives me all of the feelings of pride that I've been a Mother for nearly four entire years. Four years of lots and lots of ups and then some downs. Four years of learning. Four years of putting someone else first at all times. Four years of feeling utter pride as I've watched my little boy - my firstborn, grow, learn and become part of this world.

I'm sitting here looking (and smiling) at a daisy that Ethan has just picked especially for me whilst he was out for a walk with his Daddy. He's a kind, thoughtful little boy and I'm so proud of him. We have our fair share of hard days, of course we do. Yesterday for example was one of those 'Is the day over yet?' days. But those nearly four years of parenting have taught me that that is all part and parcel of what it is to be a parent. Those highs and those lows - they don't get easier, they just change. And no matter how hard, you wouldn't have it any other way.
