Before I Was A Mom...


Before I was a Mom,I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous. I never thought about immunizations.


Before I was a Mom,I had never been puked on. Pooped on. Chewed on. Peed on. I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts. I slept all night.


Before I was a Mom,I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.Or give shots. I never looked into teary eyes and cried.I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin. I never sat up late hours at nightwatching a baby sleep.


Before I was a Mom, I never held a sleeping baby just becauseI didn't want to put her down.I never felt my heart break into a million pieceswhen I couldn't stop the hurt. I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.I never knew that I could love someone so much.I never knew I would love being a Mom.


Before I was a Mom, I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body..I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby..I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child. I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.


Before I was a Mom, I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay. I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom. I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom .



To All The Wonderful Mother's In The World...Happy Early Mother's Day!!!!
