i never thought being a mother will entirely change my life. i learned to let go of the things that i want in order for me to have something to give to my cutie oink-oink. she's everything to me. she always reminds me of working hard so that i can give her a better future someday.. she taught me to be self-less. this is only one of the joys of being a mother... a very noble profession as i may call it.

Hello abegail_tupia, Yes being a mother is something every girl is proud of.Though i am not a mother but a father and always overwhelmed whenever i see my kids and that gives me a hint how many times my wife would be when she sees these kids. I won't call it a profession but a debt of our parents which we try to nullify by nourishing and raising our kids. I understand your feelings being a mother now.I know responsibilities almost get doubled once we have kids.

Well, you are now having a different role in life, someone's mother and wife. The role gives you responsibility and it will change how you think and behave. In other words, you are becoming more matured. I'm not talking about your age, I mean your mind and feelings. I'm sure you will make a good mother yourself and believe me, you child will be grateful to have you as her mother.

Its not a profession my friend... It is a duty given to you by God.. And you must perform it the best... I'm sure you'll.. No mother has failed at it ever... Having a baby of your own is the best joy in the world... Take care of her... Good Luck!

Hi Abegail that is soo much true. when we were kids we tend to ask and ask from our parents. we never know how much that they had done for us only after being a mother, i know how it is hard to be a mother. tough we had try our best to make our kids happy and fulfill their needs, they tend to feel lack of. it is also making me think that we should sacrifice all that we have for our family

hello, Congratulation for being a mother. You really grow because now you know how to sacrifice for your child that you never realize when you are not yet a mother. right? That is nice to hear from you that you are being a responsible parent for your kid.

you are right. becoming a mom is a great feeling. I never realized that i am waking up whole night for my baby, missed my meals spending time with him. You just want to give everything to your child from this world.
