Hi everyone! Welcome to my Steem Philippines post. It's my first time to post in Steem Philippines community. And I'm glad that I can share my post to this community.

Today, I will be sharing the uncharted territory of motherhood. My journey of self-discovery as a mother.

As I sit here, reflecting on my journey as a mother, I am overwhelmed with emotions. From the moment my son was born, my life changed in ways I never thought possible.

---

In early days, I remember the sleepless nights, the endless diaper changes, and the constant worrying. But amidst all the chaos, I found a sense of purpose and joy that I had never experienced before. My son's smile, his laughter and his tiny hands wrapped around my finger made every challenge worth it.

The Lesson Learned

As I watch my son grow and evolve, I learned valuable lessons about patience, selflessness, and unconditional love. I learned to cherish the little moments, to forgive myself for my mistakes, and to trust my instincts. I learned that being a mother is not just about caring for my child's physical needs, but also about nurturing their emotional and spiritual well-being.

From lazy sundays spent playing in playhouse to family vacations filled with laughter and adventure, my son and I have created a treasure trove of memories. We've had our fair share of tantrums and meltdowns. But through it all, our bond has grown stronger.

Motherhood has unraveled my sense of identity, forcing me to re-examine my values, priorities and sense of purpose. As I navigate the complexities of parenting, I am confronted with the daunting question: "Who am I, beyond motherhood?" The answer, much like the journey itself, remains elusive, yet I am drawn to the mystery, the uncertainty, and the possibility of discovery.

The Love We Share

As I look at my son, I am filled with a sense of awe and gratitude. His curious spirit, his kind heart, and his infectious smile remind me of the beauty and wonder of childhood. Becoming a mother to my son has been the most profound and transformative experience of my life. Being his mother is a privilege and a joy, and I am thankful for every moment we share.

You are my sunshine, my reason for being and the reason I strive to be a better person and I am forever changed because of you. You are my forever love. Thank you for letting me experience to be a mother and for choosing me to be your mother.
