Someone sent this to me the other day & I thought it was quite cool.
Before I was a Mum I had complete control of: My thoughts My body And my mind. I slept all night. Before I was a Mum I never held down a screaming child so the 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 at night watching a baby sleep. Before I was a Mum, I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put it 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 I would love being a Mum. Before I was a Mum, I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside of 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. Before I was a Mum, I had never gotten up in the middle of the night Every ten minutes to make sure all was ok. I had never known the warmth The joy The love The heartache The wonder Or the satisfaction of being a Mum. I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much before I was a Mum. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">
