Mother's Day

Before I was a Mom, I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby. I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous. I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a Mom, I had never been puked on,
pooped on,
chewed on,
peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and thoughts.
I slept all night.

Before I was a Mom, I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never stayed up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

Befor I was a Mom, I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put him/her down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much. I never knew that I could love someone so much.

Before I was a Mom, I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was OK.
I had never known the warmth,
the joy,
the LOVE,
the heartache,
the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling SO much,
Before I was a Mom.
