Quote: A Mother is Born

First, I would like to thank reader Shandi for contributing the lovely quote below. I hope other readers will enjoy it too as I did. Thank you Shandi!

The moment a child is born,

the mother is also born.

She never existed before.

The woman existed,

but the mother, never.

A mother is something absolutely new.

I find this absolutely true. I became a mother the moment my child was born and I had to learn how to be a mother. I'm still learning! Its a lifelong process. I existed before I became a mother and now that I am a mother I constantly struggle between the woman in me and the mother in me.

I am sure all you mothers out there will agree with me that being a mother is one of the hardest roles ever! Lets continue to encourage and inspire each other in our roles as mother.
