To all the wonderful women whom have sacrificed their time to put our little monsters before and above ourselves, maybe sacrificed your present dreams in order to make theirs come true each day, perhaps sacrificed your sanity and mind at times, and even sacrificed our bodies we used to have in order to build and grow these tiny humans… Just remember… Time is short and one day you’re holding them wrapped in your arms and looking in their little glistening eyes, and then we blink and they are 14 and those eyes are rolling at you for not being “cool”, our dreams we thought we put on hold, simply made a turn and the exit we got off at ended up being so much more worthwhile… and best of all, our mind and body is ever changing. That beautiful belly that grew them, and turned squishy for a while, is their landing pad for running hugs in times of sadness and happiness. Well wishes for you stepping Mommy’s - for your health, and theirs.
