To be a mom

I love this poem:

Before you were conceived I wanted you
Before you were born I loved you
Before you were here an hour I would die for you
This is the miracle of life.
           ~Maureen Hawkins

I just read it on my sister in law's blog. What a beautiful sentiment. It is true. Being a mom is the greatest thing in the world.

That poem is true even when they are driving you batty.

Can you believe I am on the computer? Maybe I'll blog.....
