A Dozen Reasons Why I am Thankful for Being a Mom

[mommacrafts]

I am thankful for being a mom of the sweetest little thing I ever had:  my daughter.

… for kissing my flaws thinking that I am perfect;

… for needing my arms as she lays to sleep;

… for laughing while she’s crying as I transform into a tickle monster;

… for being happy with little things we share;

… for testing the level of my sanity when her endless tantrum begins;

… for reminding me that the daily routines we do together are actually different, and each day I learn from it;

… for training my resistance to patience;

…for teaching me not to be embarrassed when she does something awful in the middle of the crowd because I am a mom and willing to do the right way in the midst of it all;

… for asking me to hug her, which actually means carry her even if she is almost half my weight – because this made me realize  as a sweet alternative to dumbbell exercise;

… for helping me dig through my creativity;

… for helping me define unconditional love;

… for totally transforming my life and my heart’s desires that helped me understand why my mother cried on my wedding day (I’ll tell you why someday).

And I won’t forget my husband.  I thank you for everything!
