Hey moms, remember before kids? When you were young and carefree, driving down the long, endless highways, ocean breeze on your left and a colossal mountain on your right. Laughing with friends about everything and anything that came up. Discussing the drama with each guy you and your friends got involved with. Eating greasy burgers at 2 in the morning after a night of dancing. Or working full-time, and knowing all your money is yours. 

Well, as nice as those years were, they're also long gone and what's replaced them is the polar opposite vibe – responsibility, hard work, and looking more and more like you're on the verge of a breakdown. But you know why you chose this, because of the ineffable connection and transcendence that comes with having a child. The love you feel and your purpose on earth grows from the seed of your spawn, reminding you everyday of why you gave up a life of basically luxury to be a mother. That life of freedom and youth is nice, but it's superficial, it's empty and gets tiring to find meaning in the day-to-day without something bigger. It's a solid choice, and you can laugh about all of it when the kids turn 18.
