Mine

For 9 months I marveled and thought - who is this being arriving, budding, turning and twisting, floating, swimming deep, deep inside me. Until on 2nd October: 3pm – you danced right into my life, into my heart from my womb. It’s like my heart walked right out of my belly. I wonder what being your mother means to me.

Being your mother connotes that I have had the prospect to experience loving somebody far more than I love myself or anyone else in this whole wide world. I have understood what it's like to go through elation and pain through somebody else's life. It has fetched me happiness and pride; your triumphs –like the first time you grasped my finger, your first smile, the first time you gave me a baby kiss, your first cooing, gurgle and all your tiny achievements touch me and delight me like no one else's can. Many days with you have also bought me a few tears and anguish at times, but it has made me learn how much patience I have. It has revealed to me the profundity, power, and supremacy of love.

Being your mother hasn't constantly been trouble-free, since the time you were conceived and I'm certain I've said or done things that might have made you upset several times. But no one has ever made me as contented as you do just by your smile and by showing your happy face to me each morning. No one has made me as pompous as you do just by being yourself. Nobody’s smile has ever soothed my heart like yours does; no one's laughter loads my heart with happiness as swiftly as yours can. No one's cuddles feel as lovable, and nobody’s dreams mean as much to me as yours do.

Being your mother means my heart is never alone. It wanders wherever you are. All my memoirs of sad times of the past, have phenomenally transformed into significant learnings or happy stories of my life; the happy times have become valuable wealth to relive time and again.

You are my own part; my own flesh and blood; you are mine and regardless of what happened in the past or what the future beholds, you are somebody I will forever accept, understand, believe, forgive, value, admire, and love unconditionally.

Being your mother denotes that I've been gifted one of life's biggest rewards:

“You” – My son.
