Motherhood is just more opportunities in a small bundle

My son has given me more topics to write about and more things to share my opinion on. Just being pregnant gave me more subjects to write about. Being a mom is a full time job and kids can and will be a handful; however that doesn't mean that you have to give up writing completely. You may need to adjust your schedule and wait until baby is sleeping before you have time to write. Put your husband on baby duty for a few hours while you take a breather. My baby can be a handful and my husband is more than helpful, so that I am able to have time to write and do whatever I need to do.

Motherhood opens the door to many subjects and also gives you experiences that you can write about. You can write about almost anything child related when you are a mother. The subjects are endless when it comes to children; it will take a while to get to different age areas, but it can be worth it. I can read my book to my son (If I ever finish it) and get an opinion before I decide whether or not it is good enough to share with everyone else.

To me being a mom is giving me the chance to share with my child my passion for writing and possibly watching him become a writer as well. You share your passion with your child and teach him/her everything you know about writing. With you being a writer and teaching your child all about writing, you could end up with tomorrow's newest best selling author on your hands. Then again your child may be the worst writer you know but that's part of raising a kid. I know that until recently my writing was really awful to say the least.

My son means the world to me and I enjoy watching him grow everyday. He has opened the door to many things for me and writing is just another thing I can add to that list. I got lucky and ended up with a very supportive husband who takes care of our son so that I can have time to write. I love writing and will always be able to make time to write. Time for writing may be little at times but taking care of my son is my main concern. Anyone can write but not everyone can take care of my son.

Motherhood is only the end of writing if you want it to be. If you take the time to adjust your schedule, you can still write as much or as little as you want. Motherhood hasn't spelled the end of writing for me; however it did spell the end of sleep. I can't wait for my son to be able to sit with me and read stories that I have written. (If I finish them)
