I just finished filling-up Vaughn’s album with the pictures we developed last Saturday and it dawned on me again how time flies so fast. This picture was my absolute favorite among others when  Vaughn was only 4 months old. He looked so cute and innocent on this picture that I would feel emotional each time I laid my eyes on it. I totally love kids but having your own is absolutely different. You’d feel an intense love for your child which I never really thought possible until Vaughn was born. I realize some of my friends feel that having kids and getting married is difficult. But I feel that motherhood is a gift. Before giving birth to Vaughn , I didn’t really know what was my purpose or drive in life. Sure, I had ambition but for some awkward reason, I felt like I was going nowhere. I thought having a great job and working hard was enough to make you happy. It did, but the happiness I felt was fleeting. During my pregnancy, I was scared like everyone else. I probably asked a hundred questions in my mind. Was I ready? Will I be a good mother? Can I provide the best for my son? However, despite the uncertain future that lay ahead I was determined to do my absolute best. When Vaughn was finally born, I felt indescribable happiness. He had my hair and nose but most of his features came from his father. Finally, I just knew he is and will always be my purpose in life. :-D
