Sometimes you don’t appreciate your mother until you become one ~Author

A mothers’ heart

If you get a great mother, you don’t recognize it until you have witnessed a bad mother.

If you get a great mother, you don’t recognize it until you become one.

If you get a great mother, you don’t appreciate her until she is gone.

What can be said, about a great mother?

There is no perfect mother.

I don’t believe most people expect their mother to be perfect.

I have come to learn more about my mother when I became a mother.

There are things she could not prepare me for.

I never would have imagined loving someone the way I love my children.

My children were planned and very much wanted.

I have always been overjoyed when they walk into the room.

I assume most moms feel this way.

My heart guided me in discipline, and boundaries before it was a popular term.

Now I have come on the other side of that love and have become a GIGI.

I see my children implementing some of the same methods I used in parenting.

A great mother’s heart is never far from her children.

We miss them all the time.

A great mother’s heart is knitted to what she gives birth to and stays with the child even after she is gone.

A Mother’s Heart…

Thank you for reading Be Well!
