I am not going to be that mom...

... who uses her fridge as an art gallery/toy box.

I am not going to be that mom who lets her child roam free.

I am not going to be that mom who dresses her child to match a parent.

I am not going to be a mom that lets her child sleep in her bed.

I am not going to be that mom who lets her child freely explore the world of art and then have to wash everything that was destroyed by markers and crayons. 

I am not going to be that mom who watches her child sleep and check to see if he is breathing through out the night (even at 19 months old).

And I will most certainly be that mom who is in constant awe of her son's amazing spirit!
