Ok to read even if you are not a mom

Mom are you getting something for m.o.m.'s day? well this is something someone sent me I think it's cute, would like to share. (I could've written my own cause I also like to write but this person hit it right on the dot, I would only add before I was ...

a mom my life had no purpose of being.

Comment if you like about how you feel, appreciated or even unappreciated. I'm kinda in the middle, but I'm fine with things, I raised my kids to be who they are not for what I would get back in return. Speaking about material stuff. Happy mothers day!

Before I was a mom,
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.
Chewed on.
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 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 her 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 and happy.

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.

WOW
that was awesome
xD

wow I'll be a mom in December and I cant wait for all those thing!!

cute.

I'd just like to add
Before I was a mom, I never spent so much money on Oxyclean to remove stains from everything.
haha

Awww!! Cute baby, I feel you. I raised 5 and still have 3 at home. Soon to be grandma in June 15, approximately, and Yesss, I am so excited.
For me babies, kids, children are IT. The reason to keep going, regardless of the gloomy days that we as adults sometimes have to confront. The unconditional L.O.V.E. That's what my kids mean to me. Thanks for sharing all.

awww that was so cute! I showed my mom and she hugged me tight
