Somtimes you are gone so long it is hard to start

The birth of our son, Bryn was an amazing expereince and I am in awe everyday thinking about him and caring for him. At the same time I lost my mother and I cannot believe the gap that is there that can never be fillled againl. All the memories lost. All the questions still unanswered--how I can never again ask for her help with Bryn to learn what she went throught with motherhood.....

motherhood is so much more than i imagined--hard to wrap my arms around it to understand the time, emotions, feelings.

I am not a mother but i deem for what you said to be so true. Motherhood is a gift indeeds. But the challenge that comes along with it can be so trying. But we can make the best of it. You can do it seeing the joy and love that you expressed from within.

Cheers!

I lost my mother shortly after the birth of my daughter. I can relate very much to this post. But you will make it through. There are incredible joys and strength to be discovered in the process of motherhood, as well as the challenges. You will grow strong and full of love, even if not easily all the time.
