Happy Mother's Day!!!!!
I would first like to say " Happy Mother's Day" to all the mothers that visit my blog! I hope you have a wonderful, relaxing day!
This is my 1st Mother's day. I actually never thought I would be able to celebrate this day as a mother. Last year, I remember being over my parents house on the back porch with my mom, husband, and new nephew. I held him in my arms and the tears began to fall. My mother said to me
"Mina, your time will come baby". I knew she could see straight to the desire of my heart. Who knew one year later that my time would come.
Each year I have a long list of women who I send Mother's day cards to. Being a mother is a gift that has been given. Not every woman is able to conceive and bear children. Motherhood is not to be taken lightly.
When I found out I was pregnant I remember feeling so lucky. Even after trying to conceive for almost 2 years I remember feeling that I was blessed because there were other women in the world who would never be able to be in the moment I was in. Each month as my baby grew I remember telling myself to cherish the time that I had with my baby. When it was confirmed that Mylah was a girl, I felt so proud to be able to say I had a daughter and I wanted to give her the life that my mother gave me. In my mind I ran through how I would discipline her, how I would comfort her if a boy broke her heart, how I would show her to stick up for herself and be a leader, I would push her to follow her dreams & show her that she would never be too young to begin to achieve greatness, and I would love her so much and tell her each day I had the chance.
I see so many women; Mothers, who are so lost. They don't have a clue & don't seem to comprehend what they've been given in their role as mother. Some seem as though motherhood is a joke or hassle. Being a mother is the hardest job a person can have. There are no yearly raises based on performance, no vacation or sick days, no one to cover your shift. Mothers must always been on top of things, always on their feet. Mothers have to be coach, mentor, doctor, chef, & nurse all at once. And some mother's never even get a "thank you", but some children also never even get a mother even though the woman who birthed them may be there.
Now that I am older I realize how hard it is to be a mother. An adult doesn't have to be a mother to see the sacrifices a mom makes for her child. Being a mother takes courage and maturity. It takes love and patience. Mothers must nurture & be compassionate. Mothers must also know how to forgive and provide guidance.
I woke up today to my daughter squirming around in her bassinet. I picked her up and looked at her in those big eyes. I smiled at her. I kissed her on the cheek and closed my eyes to soak up the moment. I woke up today; on Mother's day a mother to my own child. She has brought me so much happiness in these 7 weeks. I love that she is mine, I don't have to drop her off or wait for her mother to pick her up. She came from me, I carried her for 41 weeks and 2 days. I feed her, I change her diapers, I bathe her & talk to her, I worry about her. She is in my every thought. She has shown me that there is a love that is bigger than I could have ever imagined. She makes me want to be better, do better, achieve more, and keep going. She calms me and soothes me. She brings tears to my eyes for no reason. I will do all I can for her and more. I will go without before she will. I will protect her, I will speak for her, I will fight for her. I am Mylah's mother & that's something that no one can take from me.
