The beginning--better late than never

There were so many thoughts and reflections from the day I first became a mom and as much as I really wanted to jot them down, I didn't get around to it. So now finally, a year later, I am starting inshaAllah and hopefully I will be able to recall some of my older thoughts too as it will be a pity if something as incredible as the experience of first becoming a mother is forgotten by me simply because it wasn't captured. So this is my attempt at putting down my reflections in 'paper' and having them all in one place so that I can return to them easily and also benefit from this process by reflecting further inshaAllah. If it is of benefit to others as well then alhamdulillah, please keep me in your duas.
