Mothers Day 2015

As sappy as all the Facebook and Instagram posts get, it’s hard to deny how special motherhood is. The bond between a mother and her child is hard to put into words. I definitely felt it with my own mom before having a child, and now that I am a mother it has grown stronger. I was listening to a podcast the other day where the man speaking put parenthood into perfect perspective. He said that before he had children, he had felt like he lived a great life and that he was ready to die whenever that happened. He had traveled, fulfilled career goals, had loves of his life and a supporting family. He said the moment his daughter was born that all changed and he became panicked at not being around for her. Becoming a parent makes you so vulnerable. It’s very true. You almost grow a new heart when you have a child. So cheers to all the mother’s out there-a day late.
