Thirteen

My firstborn is thirteen. My daughter was born thirteen minutes after my water broke in hospital. It was an uncomfortable but not all too painful labour. I didn't like being yelled at though for being noisy as I screamed my first child into the world, or the two and half hour stitch up.
I think adapting to being a mother for the first time was one of the hardest thing I have experienced. I was amazed, happy yet unprepared for the change.
I couldn't feel more blessed to have her in my life.
