The first time I held my child was right after I gave birth. While still attached with the umbilical cord he was placed on my bare stomach and chest for about ten to fifteen minutes. Most of that time was a blur to me. Everyone was still all excited and in enjoying the moment that he entered the world.
I consider my first experience with motherhood to be a few hours after you were born. Right after you entered this world and we met face to face, we spent a few moment together. You laid on my chest and we got to know each other and feel each other warmth.
I have learned the importance of my time in the morning. It is worth waking up an hour early in order to have my quite time in prayer and reading Gods word. It totally changes my day and how I relate to my husband and respond to my sons needs.
