Before I was a Mom
I slept as late as I wanted and never worried about how late I got into bed...I brushed my hair and my teeth everyday...
Before I was a Mom
Icleaned my house each day... 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 - Spit on - Chewed on...Or Peed on... I had complete control of my mind and My thoughts... I slept all night...
Before I was a Mom
I never held down a screaming child so that 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 sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep...
Before I was a Mom
I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put it 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. ..I never knew I would love being a Mom...
Before I was a Mom
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body..I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby..I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child...I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important...
Before I was a Mom
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay... 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...
