favorite memory
sadly, it took me a small while of retracting, and thinking... I don't know why it didn't come to my face sooner... it was already face palming me to begin with... So many people, so many faces, so many events, so many places, cities, etc
But, the person who has given me my favorite memory and one that I have never forgotten to this day... I don't know why it took me a sec to realize... Danny!!! My lil boy... Arturo Daniel Schmidt... the lil love who still makes me smile no matter what... Who asks why water is falling from eyes instead of "crying" the boy who calls it "cheese tortilla" instead of "quesadilla"...
My Precious baby boy,
Yes, you have witnessed water falling my eyes... maybe a far too many times. I try and hide but you always seek me out... You are my lil ray of sunshine, no doubt.
Danny, even though parts are still a blur, I will never ever ever forget the day you were born. I am sure many mothers feel the same about their kids' births... Prior to your birth I can almost say I was having quite a few out body experiences (during labor)... That pain in itself was drugging me away. I don't know much about torture but I knew I was able to withstand pain man oh man was I wrong... mom (grandma) regrets not letting me take the epidural... seeing births of other people have finally made her realize that she should have let them medicate me, she still gets the chills thinking about the screams... But, baby you know what... the pain I had then, some of the back problems I still have now... will NEVER diminish the feeling I felt the moment I was holding you in my arms. I was so afraid to hold you, you felt so tiny... I was so out of it ... I felt like I was going to drop you. I felt inexperienced... I didn't want rest I just wanted everybody to see you... You had become my lil pride. My lil furry lil boy... haha! My lil monkey... The funny thing was that no one was able to tell you ethnicity when you were born... haha! One of my favorite memories of you will always be your birth... I really wanted to meet the lil boy who had made me drink a whole bottle of tomato juice ( remember the Scene from "Look who's talking?" and she's drinking the apple juice well that's me with tomato juice), I also wanted to know who was the lil boy who has me carry a lil bottle of Tapatio sauce in my purse...
You are are my favorite memory even to this day...
Thank you for all the wonderful memories and we still have many more to make
Love you,
Reyna aka mommy (He calls me Reyna)

kids are awesome
Possibly the only reason I'm not always glad to be a man... I can never experience that. It absolutely astounds me!!! Hats off to all the moms of the world...
@Snoog420 - Kids are awesome!
@slugs - Even though you might not be able to experience there is the supportive role that men should and must play. I think sometimes if a man isn't taking on his role during that hard time it's impossible for a woman. Well not impossible since I was alone during my whole pregnancy and birth but I had supportive friends. You can be apart of that moment which might mean more to her than you might think. A different experience but a beautiful none the less . =D But, sometimes I wished people didn't have to feel the pain. But, the gift of life is worth the tears and cries...
