Even though this mother's baby can't communicate with words, phrases, or sentences yet, he communicates with body language and facial expressions. Sure, babies can smile at Cocomelon on the television screen because colorful dancing fruit is pretty entertaining. However, a playful baby intentionally bonding with their mother is no small feat—especially after a year filled with the common and rare trials and tribulations of parenting.
As the mother said, something clicked. There's a sort of “Aha!” moment that happens when you realize the small being that you carried for nine months is now becoming their own person with real feelings and derive pleasure from engaging with you. I'm not a mother yet, but I have a few nieces and a nephew. When I met each of them for the first time, they looked at me as if they saw a ghost. I don't blame them—I'm not Mom! However, as they started coming into their own, they began engaging with me more and their tiny hands would grab my finger to show me what cool new toy they received that week.
The best moments are truly the little things that in reality, aren't so little at all. Moms in the comments afgree that while motherhood can be very tolling in the first year, each mom realizes that they wouldn't trade this type of love for the world.
