I am a First-Time Mommy

Book excerpt: We, the Mothers, are superhumans born on this planet. We nurture a new life within ourselves and then nurture a brand new human being throughout our life. It is often said that God cannot be everywhere and so he created mothers. A mother embodies love, sacrifice, patience, and strength in one person. While raising our child, we symbolize a blend of passionate sentiments, careful behavior, and beautiful sacrifice. We begin our journey of hope the moment the child makes his or her presence known in our womb. From then on, we take each step slowly, carefully, and cautiously, with the sole purpose of safeguarding our young one, who is more valuable to us than anything else! We are fearless and dare to take on the entire world to protect our children. We exude the purest kind of love and take any humiliation in stride, forgiving continually and silently enduring the anguish of rejection while returning the warm grin of affection no matter how much we are hurt. We may not be singers, but our lullabies are the sweetest; we may not be chefs, but no meal can compare to the deliciousness of what we cook; we may not be teachers, but the life lessons we deliver are unparalleled.
