I have loved working with The Motherhood and look forward to working with them again in 2011. To start the year off, I have been asked to join a team of bloggers in sharing some of my feelings about Motherhood. So, here we go:

I believe Motherhood is one of the most challenging and rewarding jobs there is.

Before Motherhood I thought I knew everything about being a good mom. It is only through experience that I have actually become one.

My favorite thing about Motherhood is when my boys come up to me and give me the biggest hugs and kisses anyone could ask for. These are priceless!

I have learned that Motherhood is a 24 hours a day, 7 days a week job, with hugs and kisses as bonuses for a job well done.

Because of Motherhood, I am the woman I am today.

If it were not for Motherhood, I would never know how much toilet paper a toilet could hold before it overflowed.

Before Motherhood, I could listen to my CDs instead of Dora the Explorer or Alvin and the Chipmunks.

This was a compensated post through The Motherhood. All opinions expressed in this post are 100% mine.

I ADORE this post, everything you said is SO true. You made me laugh with the part about the toilet paper… I think every mother has had THAT experience. 🙂
I also think the hugs and kisses are the very best part of motherhood. When they get older and move away, the virtual hugs and kisses are almost as wonderful.
Thanks for writing this, you gave me a huge smile and a warm heart!
