When you're a mother of tenacious youngsters, your tomorrow is never the same as your yesterday. Everyday adds something new, something to understand, learn, and cope with. Your children have you running around them as if you're in a race, but you have no idea where the finish line is. From waking them up in the morning, to getting them ready to get out the door, and picking them up from school, time is a wormhole. You feel like your whole day is in a vortex of images, lurid colors, and people talking at you without you understanding them. Time stops in these hours of going to work at your "real" job, only to come home to the same chaos you left hours ago.
Through the ups and downs of raising a child, you feel a sense of eternal love and purpose in life. You grow each day as they grow, and they show you things about the world you never thought you'd learn. Being a parent catching every curveball thrown at you is incredibly rewarding and special, and every mother should feel proud of themselves for their dedication and selflessness.
