It's GREAT to be a Mom!

Being a mother is a wonderful experience!  Moms have the potential to constantly impact lives for the better, enjoy the creativity and enthusiasm inherent in children, and witness the miracle of life on a daily basis.  We all admit that our job isn't easy, but the articles here are written to celebrate all that is GREAT!

In response to the question, "what do you do?", have you ever heard someone say "Oh, I'm just a mom"?  Is there any such thing as "just" a mom?
I always knew I'd love babies, but loving the "big" kids is a bonus I didn't expect.
A mother's work is the centerpiece of society. We deserve appreciation and recognition, but what really matters is how we see ourselves.
You don't have to command an audience of thousands or earn a six-figure income to make a difference.
Having just entered the world of mothering two children, I have discovered it is even more fulfilling than mothering just one! In the article I try to make sense of that phenomenon.

Savoring the precious moments of motherhood is worth the effort.  Some days (many days!) may seem long and hard, but by focusing our attention on this special time with our children, we can feel a joy that is beyond belief.
