This email came from my good friend, Dindin. The passage moved me, so I thought I’d post it on my blog and share it to 5 of my pretty mom friends Joy, Jane, Thea, Mich, and Vannie.

________________________________________________________________

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 him 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.

Send this to someone who you think is a special Mom.

I just did!

   I was moved by this email of Dindin too. It’ll be in a few months before I get to really experience it but I could somehow feel it now. Happy mother’s day on Sunday! Mwah!

   hi cha, naku, lalo mong mafi-feel ang pagiging mom mo pag andyan na ang baby mo.

   the line “I never knew that I could love someone so much.” would be extremely meaningful once you are a mom. when you become a mom, you’ll truly understand what unconditional love means

   take care of your little one and sana tulou-tuloy ang pagka-smooth ng pregnancy mo
