Why I am a Mom

There is a reason to laugh and make someone else laugh every day.

The rewards are prominent and endless.

Kraft Macaroni and Cheese.

The everyday lessons of patience, understanding and time management.

The constant reminder that life is fragile and fast.

All the fun activities you can only get away with when you have a child.

(Swings and slides, hello!)

The joy of teaching and seeing your baby learn.

The firmness it adds to any testimony.

Seeing life through "first time" eyes.

The kisses, hugs and "I love you's".

To be able to use and cherish the gift of birth and motherhood
given to us by God.

The timelessness of it all.
