I just have been send this story by my cousin Mandy and I reading it made me tear up… once again… I know. Lol. If you’re a mom (especially a new mom) please have tissues ready! Here is the story for Story Sunday!

Before I became a Mom,

I never tripped over toys or forgot the text of a good-night-song.

I didn’t worry if my plants are toxic or not and I never wondered about immunization.

 

Before I became a Mom,

nobody ever puked on me,

pooped on me,

chewed on me,

peed on me.

I wasn’t all nuts and I slept through every night.

 

Before I became a Mom,

I never had to hold a child tightly, so that doctors can evaluate it.

Or give him an injection.

I never looked into tear covered eyes and started to tear up myself.

I was never over excited and happy about a simple smile or grin.

I never sat awake late at night, just to watch a baby sleep.

 

Before I became a Mom,

I never held a baby in my arms and not wanting to lay it down in her bed.

I never knew the feeling, that breaks my heart into a thousand pieces, when I can’t stop the pain.

I never knew, that something so little can influence my life big time.

I never knew, that I could ever love someone that much.

I never knew, that I would love to be a mom.

 

Before I became a Mom, I didn’t know how it feels, when my heart jumps outside my body.

I didn’t know how great it feels to feed a hungry baby.

I didn’t know the bond between a mother and her child.

I didn’t know that I can feel so important, needed and happy, because of such a tiny thing.

 

Before I became a mom, I never got up at night every 10 minutes, just to check if everything is okay.

I didn’t know the warmth, the happiness, the love, the heartache, the astonishment and the satisfaction of being a Mom.

I never knew, that I’m capable to  feel so much, before I became a Mom.

… Send this to somebody, that you think is a great mom.
… And remember: Behind every successful mom stands…

 

…a hamper full of dirty laundry!!!
