Mommy's Love

I never, not even in my wildest dream, that having is a baby is the most wonderful experience that could ever happen to a woman. I thought that "snaring" a husband was the ultimate! How wrong I was. I would definitely give my life for my child - but for my husband? - wait, I have to weigh the pros and cons. OK. No. Why? I cant' just leave my kids to my husband! What if he remarries and gets a real witch for a second wife? Then my kids will be the proverbial step children of the wicked step mother. Funny, but that was how my mind worked way before I had crow's feet around my eyes. Bottom line. There's not one (right in her mind) mother out there who would not risk her life for the sake of her child.

With five kids to take care of and worry about, I was pretty much a wreck back then. (Well, I'm still pretty much of a "wreck" , but not as much). It was hard keeping tabs of immunizations, school projects, exams schedules, extra-curricular activities, and the list goes on. I sort of cannot feel compassion for complaining moms out there who have just one child to take care of. Try taking care of two kids, at least, before you complain. And why complain anyway? Did your kid tell you that he/she wants to be born and make your life miserable? Bottom line. If you feel you do not have the right sacrificial attitude in you, think hard before you consider having a child.
