Thirteen things about being a mom...
1. You learn how much your own mother really loved you.
2. You can stare at a sleeping baby for hours and never get over the wonder of it all.
3. The state of the world suddenly takes on a very new significance.
4. You always have someone to entertain you and make you smile.
5. You are finally proud of the accomplishments of someone else.
6. Your heart breaks when your children are hurting.
7. You find out that that you can be incredibly furious at someone and love them unconditionally at the same time.
8. No matter how many children you have, there is enough love to go around.
9. You can make a kid eat but you can't stop him from throwing up afterward..
10. You learn that changing diapers and wiping runny noses only make you love the children more.
11. The doctor's office can be like a home away from home.
12. Even though your kids grow up, deep inside your heart they're always your little ones.
13. Even though it seems as though those little people will never grow up, they really do, and then you wish you could go back to when they were little again, even if just for an hour or two.
And if we weren't moms, who would we take pictures of?
