Thoughts on Mothers' Day

"Before becoming a mother I had a hundred theories on how to bring up children. Now I have seven children and only one theory: love them, especially when they least deserves to be loved."- Kate Samperi


"Motherhood brings as much joy as ever, but it still brings boredom, exhaustion, and sorrow too. Nothing else ever will make you as happy or as sad, as proud or as tired, for nothing is quite as hard as helping a person develop his own individuality especially while you struggle to keep your own."-Marguerite Kelly and Elia Parsons


Of all the things that are me
The one I hold most tenderly
The chance you gave at birth
To show me all my worth. - Me

Happy Mother's Day to all of you who have the privilege of sharing your lives with children.

Treasure every moment with them. One day you will be very glad you did!
