Where there is a baby bear, there is a...

MAMA BEAR! so be careful! Yes, this is my little baby bear but watch out because I am mama bear and definitely have felt like motherhood makes me feel like an animal watching out for my young. I have this strange animal instinct to take care of him and protect him and I can't control it sometimes. I can't help but guard him and keep a constant eye on him when someone wants to hold him. It takes me awhile to feel comfortable enough to be able to leave the room when someone else is holding him. I feel like he always needs to be in my line of sight.

Baby bear is 7.5 weeks old. I can't believe how quickly it is going by and how fast he is growing. I'm worried about having to go back to work after the new year and leave baby bear with someone else, but I am sure I will survive.
