Happy Mothers Day, Mom
I'm fortunate enough to have three beautiful Mothers to look up to and to celebrate this day with, my own Mother, my Mother-in-law and my Sister-in-law. All three of these beautiful women have taught me something about motherhood and for that, I am truly grateful. After becoming a Mother myself, a new found appreciation for all mothers, especially my own was born.
There is no doubt that motherhood is one of the most challenging jobs out there but also the most rewarding. The sleepless nights, the endless worrying, the days you think you've got things handled and the other days where you feel like you're failing at everything. My husband said it best, "Parenthood has the ability to make you feel the highest of highs and the lowest of lows and everything in between." Sometimes all in a span of 5 minutes!
Becoming a Parent will be your biggest and most important adventure. It will take ALL of you, your mind, body and soul to raise your child. It will take A LOT of patience, hard work, failure and LOTS of tears but it will also make you feel so much joy, fulfillment and happiness. You can go from sobbing uncontrollably to beaming with so much pride that your cheeks will hurt from all the smiling. It's a crazy roller coaster of emotions and it's a never ending ride! My own Mother told me that the worrying never stops and that regardless of how old I get, she will ALWAYS be there if her children need her. My Mom proved this to me a couple of months ago when I was rushed to the ER two nights in a row. My Mother was at my bed side and took care of me and my kids while I was on the road to recovery. A Mothers love knows no bounds, it is truly the strongest love out there and I am so lucky to have the best mom out there.
Happy Mother's Day, Mom. I love you with all of my heart!
This Mother's Day was very important to me because it is my first Mother's Day as a mother of two!
