MOTHERS' SACRIFICE

I am the girl I am today because of the beautiful homemaker (woman) at home. Too many women are icons, to others they are an inspiration, and to me, they are all I have mentioned. They are precious in every way, the sunshine in our lives, the joy in our souls, and the epitome of love.

Mothers are the only ones we all look up to and aspire to be like; it takes someone really brave to be a mother, someone who is strong enough to raise a child, someone special to love others more than herself.

Our mothers play a role of nature, being a mother is complicated...it's a huge role for anybody to assume. There is no relationship like that of a mother and child relationship, Mothers hold their children's hands for a short while but their hearts do forever.

For good nine months you carried us waiting for the day you could hold us in your arms, the persistent pain, fear, anxiety, discomfort, sadness, difficulty in concentrating, sleeping too little or too much, loss of interest in the activities you usually enjoy, feeling guilt or worthless, your body grew, your skin stretched, pains and strange cravings but it was all worth it. 

When we say hello to the world, mothers become amazed by our beauty and overwhelmed by the love they have for us. Yes, their body changed but it created a life of amusement! Instead of sleep, they had cuddles and instead of a house, they get a family.

The love of a mother for her child is understandably the strongest emotion in humans' souls.it knows no law, no pity and dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path.

Being a mother is learning about strengths you didn't know you had and dealing with fears you don't know existed.

Our mothers have been there for us, they take care of everyone and everything in the family. Growing up at home I realized mothers were everywhere in the house but I made no sense of that until now that I finally understand why; it's because she does everything all by herself, she deals with every issue perfectly, she knows how to live with people peacefully and as the woman of the house, she gives instructions which everyone follows without objection.

Our mothers are treasures, priceless, and Allah's gift to mankind.

To our mothers, MOTHERHOOD is a choice and you have chosen to be one THANK YOU!!. Am using this forum to thank you unconditionally for the infinite love, support, friendship, the tears you have shed for us, the blame you have received because of us, the embarrassment you have suffered in public because we cried for your attention or for us to be fed, the risk you took at the labor room and how you have defended us before our fathers. There are not enough words to describe how you are in our lives, we are the luckiest eggs you have hatched, we are eternally grateful, You will forever be our first and last LOVE!.

Happy Mothers Day.
