Motherhood is...




Motherhood is joyous and challenging, frustrating and rewarding, fulfilling and excruciating, exhausting and exhilarating. I think you could use just about every adjective in the book and still not come anywhere close to describing what motherhood really is. The only way to know is to experience it yourself. Watching my daughter become a mother a few weeks ago was definitely one of the most wonderful experiences of my life. Now she can know the same amazing love for a child that I have tried to describe to her, and all of the many other feelings that come with motherhood. We can share those feelings and laugh and cry together. Thank you for making me a grandma, Kori and Rick. You did good!
