Being a mom means sharing
Sharing your body for 9 months even when it gets squishy and you feel like the lining of your stomach will split
Sharing your sleeping time anywhere anytime
Sharing your free time when you finally put them down and they wake up 5 minutes laterSharing your time in the bathroom when you want to be alone
Sharing your food when theirs don't look good even if it is the exact same thing
Sharing your space when they want to sit in your lap while you are working on something
Sharing your every moment because they just want to be with you everywhere you go
Sharing your radio in the car singing loud to their favorite songs
Sharing your time during the hard and good times
Sharing your life with a person with the rest of yours and their life
Life is no longer about you. It is about a person who depends on you for everything.
How will you share your life?
So true! Motherhood. (Parenthood) is all about sharing. If we do it willingly, the blessings are amazing. But it's a sacrifice, isn't it? I wouldn't trade those quiet times in the car, the little intrusions on my time, the ways my boys want to be a part of my life. It's the best thing (and the hardest thing) I've ever invested myself in. :)

The blessing are amazing when we sacrifice and share our time with our little ones. my favorite is listening to her songs on the radio when we are in the car, what is something that you have shared with with your little ones?
