I appreciate my mother more now,
It comes with being a mom yourself,
I have been through so much in the last 18 months that I didnt know I could do.
I have danced to the tune of labor, and slept wide awake for days.
It makes me wonder how I came this far.
Many people congratulate me for having a healthy baby,
And I am glad for that
But they do not congratulate me
for being Healthy myself
I know my body has changed a lot
I know I am not longer as skinny as I used to be
I know my hair is falling off
But they ignore it all
Maybe not to make me feel bad
So I will take out time everyday
to tell myself how great I am doing
And how mentally sound I still am
I am a mother
I am great
I am fabulous
I am beautiful
PS: I'm kinda new here and will really appreciate some directions,
