All About Motherhood

It's been one month ago today when i visited my blog. I was so busy to sneak out to scribble on something pleasant. After a month long hibernation, i pondered to share with you about motherhood.
All taken from a "notebook" like given to me by Trining Matabaran, my human resource development practitioner counterpart. hope you love this....

Motherhood : A celebration of Life

It's Learning: You learn from your children as much as they learn from you. As you struggle to help them toward adulthood, they escort you to their wonderful place of innocence, imagination, and delight.

It's Having Fun: Get on the floor and play with yourkids every day. Create opportunities for fun. Dirty dishes will always be there. Children grow too quickly.

It's Limits: Not only do you teach  children limits, you learn your own limits for patience and your endurance for long, challenging days. You also learn there is one thing that is limitless:your feeling of love toward your children.

It's Watching Them Sleep: At the end of each day, you recall the greatest joys and challenges --- how they make you so angry and then so happy a moment later. Asleep, though, they arenothing less than angels.

It's Time For You: every mother learns that time for herself is essential to renew and recharge. Two hours alone to yourself when someone else is responsible for your kids can mean days of better parenting. When you feel good about yourself and are happy, everyone's better off.

It's Love: Snuggling together for bed time stories or for popcorn and rented movies. Unsolicited "i love you's". Sloppy kisses and clumsy hugs. Parenting brings more love than we could ever hope for --- everlasting, unconditional love for the greatest lengths and depths.
