Mother to Be

If I could express how much is coming in the years to come, I may try to tell you all about being a Mother.
 I suppose that is why God made the experience so unexplainable. It is not just joy or just exhaustion, not just learning how nurture or how to hold your patience. It is a transformation of your very self.
Some days you feel like you are glowing in the very light of God. Somedays you want to curl up, well anywhere, and see if you can find yourself, any part of you you used to know. 
But the truth is you are no longer there, the way you used to be. You have transformed into this all encompassing word "Mother".

It is never the same: precious and sorrowful, beautiful and all encompassing. 


Welcome Baby and welcome Mother, it is a birth to you both.
