Baby Sunday is just precious! I love that full and fleshy cheek that she possess; it screams healthy and happy! Right now, Sunday is nearly ALL DADDIE; but she does take on mommie’s fair skin. Nicole seems so happy, and rightfully so. She’s been blessed with two adopted children, with whom she loves so much. But to carry and deliver your own child; its a newer and face it, more satisfying feeling! And with age, emotions intensify, Nicole is right to say that having a child at 25 is different from having one later in life; because with age, comes more fear and more willingness to be giving. I’m sure that Nicole would continue to be an amazing mom to her little bundle of joy, and same to Keith as the father and husband. I do hope they’ll have a happily ever after; they deserve it, wholly!

And with being a bit paranoid; anyone and everyone who had mothered and/or fathered a child would understand that parenthood CHANGES HOW YOU PRECIEVE THINGS. With children, they often come first and their happiness yield your own.

GOD BLESS ALL PARENTS THE WILLINGNESS TO CONTINUE LOVING THEIR CHILDREN UNCONDITIONALLY and CHILDREN TO RECIPROCATE SUCH LOVE!

I still check my 13-year-old! I think I get what she means about the difference between her as a mom at 25 and as a mom at 41. I’m still young enough to have another baby and I know it would be very different.

Beautiful baby. I can really see the resemblance to her dad too.

I look after my little cousins every weekend and even I get worried about the baby, I go in and put my finger in his hand to make sure he grips it lol

I think it’s just natural when you are caring for a baby that you become slightly paranoid.

That is one beautiful baby. And Nicole is just so overjoyed, and rightfully so. I can’t quite tell yet, but it does appear that Sunday looks a lot like Keith. Is it just me that sees the resemblance?

I do the same exact thing, I frequently have to check to see if my infant baby girl is breathing. Although I stick my entire head in her bassinet to listen–I don’t dare put my hand on her or she might wake up! Anyway, I think it’s something most new mothers do. Still, I understand how Nicole feels, I just had my first baby girl at the age of 41. And she is the most precious thing.

First, I want to say I like Nicole Kidman and am not a “hater.” Please hear me out when I say this…

Maybe it’s just me, but I personally am a little bothered by her comments lately. It’s no secret she doesn’t have the most normal mother-child relationship with her older two children, but in her recent comments, it’s no wonder why! I have been blessed with two beautiful boys and two twin angel boys, but if I were to adopt, I feel I would feel that “connection” even though I hadn’t birthed them. She almost seems to highlight that that connection isn’t or wasn’t there when the other two came into her life…”Something happened to me when I birthed that baby, that’s changed me…”

I don’t know…maybe I’m just reading too much into it. But, that to me is something that would come out of the mouth of someone that JUST became a mom, not someone that has been a mother for 16 and 13 years. I know I felt that exact feeling when I gave birth to my first son, but he was my first! I couldn’t say the same when I lost/had to deliver my twins or when I birthed my 4th (and final!) son 4 months ago because I was already changed! I became a mom almost 3 years ago. It doesn’t change that I love all 4 of my boys equally, but that change of not-a-mom to forever-a-mom occurred when my first son was born. That moment when you become a new person, almost like you were just born again into a completely different person…it’s a beautiful moment. As I said, I have only been blessed with being able to conceive my children and have not adopted, but I would think (PLEASE correct me if I am wrong) that moment would be the same whether you are meeting that baby just moments after he/she entered the world or you are meeting them in a 3rd world country motel lobby when they are 2 years old or whenever…I think a mother is a mother, no matter how she became the mother.

Am I making sense to anyone?

Didn’t Tom make a similar comment just the other week about how he felt when Bella was just born? It seems like she never connected to her other children as she is doing to this one.
