I'm Not Magical Mommy : When Being a Mother Just Isn't Enough, Take Ten Steps!

"I'm not magical mommy"- This vital statement was stated when I began to take a closer look at myself and realized I had become overwhelmed with all the jackets that I had worn for years as a mom.

I understood that I had made the choice to have a child, but felt it wasn't a life sentence!This was the critical moment when I began to reflect how I quieted a crying infant, consoled fussy preschoolers, worried about adolescence and pre-teens, and tearfully said good-bye's to children that had become adults.

I learned that being a parent takes strength and love.

I realized that being a "mother" is purely magical !
