10. The Thankful Mama
This mama longed to have children for years and years. She struggled to find the ONE…to get pregnant…to sustain her pregnancy. After years of wondering if she’d ever hear someone call her “Mom”, it happened. And, she exudes thankfulness for every single moment–like motherhood is a dream come true. And, honestly, I need more of her in my life, and I crave her perspective.
Motherhood IS a dream come true. It’s a privilege and a calling. Every moment–even the messy, loud, chaotic, exhausting, irritating, and well, downright looney tunes moments–are a gift. It’s good to be reminded of this truth from time to time.
Instead of feeling threatened by each other or judging one another (read “Mommy Wars” for more), let’s choose to learn from each other’s strengths. Our families–and the world as a whole–benefit when we become better mothers. Let’s do this, Sweet Mamas.
