motherhood [Theme]

The feeling of guilt that you are potentially not an ideal mother is born with the child.

Yes. Ask any mother. She will say that children are a gift of fate. But sometimes you can’t bear to return this gift to the sender.

- I am the mother of four young children. Problems is putting it mildly.

Here it is, the question that Lynette dreaded like fire.

When you're 17, you know for sure that there are no more two different people than you and your mom. When you're 37 and she leaves, you can't stop being amazed at how much you consist of her - her sayings, movie quotes, favorite songs, stories, friends and optimism in spite of everything.

Do you want to end this? It was all over when my son died.

Mom even had to sacrifice her career. Although my mother says that my upbringing is not a sacrifice for her, but also self-realization. Like, being a good mother and raising a worthy person is also work, and not an easy one.

A mother's heart is capable of feeling things that cannot be expressed in words.

We must always say thank you - mothers are like that. But children have other tasks. Children need to dream.

- You know, it often seems to us that mothers don’t think about us at all, they scold us, find fault with little things, punish us and don’t want to understand us at all. But believe me, mothers love us very much. Even when they block the cards or leave them with some aunts.

We went for a walk. As we thought - to the park. I packed my bag and children. She dressed herself in white. This is a very alarming sign in general when a mother of two small children dresses in white for a walk with them. Either she was about to die, or she had gone crazy and needed to be put to sleep so that she would no longer torture anyone.

When I had children, I realized how many feelings I had not experienced before. People who don't have children have no idea that they are only experiencing the basics. Love, anger, joy, despair and so on. Chefs say that tomatoes are natural flavor enhancers. Children are like tomatoes, the most powerful sense amplifiers. You understand what unconditional love is, love without conditions, when you love not because, but SO. But at the same time, you experience all the shades of anger and despair. You will learn what absolute joy and complete hopelessness are. You become kinder, much kinder. Very vulnerable. Now, when you listen to the news and they say “one child died as a result of the terrorist attack,” you quickly switch. Just not to hear, just not to know. Previously, the whole world could have died in a terrorist attack, and you wouldn’t have cared. Now it is impossible to imagine any suffering of any child. Neither war, nor illness, nor an orphanage.

The worst thing a mother can do in the morning is wake her up.
