A Mother

Words can't express how I feel about being a mother. I feel so blessed to have such a beautiful daughter. She is my greatest joy. There isn't a time when I look at her that I don't smile and feel so happy.

I never knew that I would be so worried about a rash or a limp. I never knew that I would stay up late just crying because my baby was in pain and there wasn't anything I could do to help. I never knew that I would have to count the number of wet and messy diapers I changed in a day. I never knew how much I would kiss, hug and cuddle with something so small.
I never knew that I could love someone so small so quickly.
Being a mother isn't always easy. Some days are better than others. But I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.
