Motherhood makes you a better person
When your children are younger they need you, in a dependent way every day and at all hours of the day … but motherhood makes you a better person from minute 1.
Motherhood makes you a better person, every day … and it is not a season, because being a mother is something that will accompany you for the rest of your life. You will realize that you have met the deepest love of your life and that even if you sacrifice many times, it is worth it. Insomnia translates into happiness and exhaustion into satisfaction.
We are not making an apology for maternal sacrifice, far from it. In addition to being a mother, a woman is still a woman and she has to think about herself and take care of herself in order to be happy and to be able to take good care of her family . We are talking about the fact that women who are mothers know love from a different perspective and that this will make them a better person every day of their lives.

YOUR CHILDREN NEED YOU
When your children are young they need you, in a dependent way every day and at all hours. Once they are adults and have their own lives, they will also need you in it since you are their mother and there is no one on the planet who can supply who you are for them. You have always been, are and will be the most important person in their lives. Even with a partner or with children, the love they will always feel for you will be a priority and special.
When your children are not at home with you, you will miss them calling you 15 million times or wanting your hugs , or siblings fighting to see who is on your lap longer. You will enter their bedrooms longing for all the nights you spent there, comforting them to sleep or giving them all your love.
MOTHERHOOD IS YOUR MIRROR
Motherhood is a mirror that will always show you who you are. As many your imperfections as your virtues. Your actions, your words, your attitudes, your choices, and your beliefs. Within each day of motherhood , there is a challenge that you have to empower to shape a better version of yourself.
- In order to raise grateful children, you will have to live in satisfaction and gratitude in what you do every day of your life.
- To raise children who are patient, you have to express your patience, even when it takes your daughter 7,000 minutes to climb into her car seat, as she can do it herself.
- To show humility, you have to show them what it means to put the needs of others before your own. Fortunately, this comes by default as a mother.
- To create empathy, you should try to see things from their point of view, no matter how vain or irrational their feelings may seem at the time.
- To raise brave children, you must bravely face my own fears.
- To encourage kindness and gentleness, you have to use your hands gently and speak sweetly , even when you prefer to yell.
To help them understand that it’s okay to make mistakes, you must reject your perfectionism every day.
- To educate children that they are respectful, you must imitate what respect for them is through your own conversation.
- To give your children a sense of peace and tranquility, you must daily choose peace and joy in the midst of chaos.
All of these things make you a better mother , but also a better person. You will do this all the time almost without realizing it because you want the best for your children. All these virtues may have been challenging for you before becoming a mother … But even now, in the moments when you make mistakes, this does not prevent you from reflecting on your day and praying to do better tomorrow.
Thanks to life, there is always a tomorrow where the sun shines again and what has not turned out so well today, tomorrow will turn out better.
