Before I was pregnant I loved the idea of being a mother, the idea of my future children. During my pregnancy I grew to love the child that would be mine, my little girl growing inside of me. After her birth I’ve fallen in love all over again, she’s a miracle given to us by God, a true blessing.
I wrote a ‘nobody ever told me’ blog a while back and well here’s the continuation of that post. The love I feel for my child could never have been explained to me. I get it now; why my mother loves me so, why she wants the world for me, why a mother’s love is unconditional.
Nobody ever told me that I’d be in such awe, that I’d be brought to tears by my child’s smell or the touch of her skin. That I would sit in wonderment of the life we created. Nobody ever told me that there’s no greater gift in this world than to be a mother.
I will thank God every day for the rest of my life for giving me this gift.
