You Are A Mother

Does your heart every feel so full that it could burst? Does it ever like its brimming so far over the top that its going to culminate into tears and embarrass you and her? Does it ever feel things so strongly that you feel more deep peace then you ever thought possible, and also more strange sadness when you realize that it won't always be this way? Does it ever ache and pulse at the same time when you think of all that you were missing before and yet how much better the world is now with her in it? Do you every think of how you hope this moment will last an eternity, while still wanting to see all the millions of miracles she discovers as she grows every day? Do you ever close your eyes and silently thank the Lord for allowing you to be a part of this? Do you ever think about how all that work and pain and time is, and would have been worth it, for even one of these moments-and then realize how lucky you are to have a lifetime of them? Does it ever feel like it is just to much, in both good ways and hard ones? Do you ever look at your life now and think about how even in your wildest dreams, when you wondered how she'd look or who she'd take after, you could never have even come close to how beautiful she is? Do you ever think in some ordinary moment that you don't know when it happened or how it happened-but that somehow, someway-you are complete...that you are happy?
You have? Then you are a Mother.
