MOTHERHOOD
By shelomita, Friday, September 17, 2010Motherhood. What is it?....does every female in the world get to know this word?...or is it a certainty for every female to get captured inside it?....
Me...I have no idea at all what is motherhood about. It was always somewhere in the corner of my head that I would get married and have kids...but motherhood to me seems a bigger deal. It is not just about having kids and that is it. As for now I am stranded in this so called hood.
My life has been extra ordinary good for the past few years. I got married and just within a moment, BUMP! two kids on the table. Suddenly it became rock and roll everyday. I used to get help..we were not super rich but we managed to have three helpers to help me juggle with some motherhood roles and a career-woman shoe.
But not long ago I have ditched all of that and decided to move with my husband in a new city called Ras al Khaimah. No more helpers. It is now only me, him and our two most adorable babies.
Two years ago, when I first time got my first son, life was so much easier with the helps and me got to work everyday. Too easy that I kind of slipped almost every precious moment of him doing these great things: his first words, his first acts, his first laughs for anything funny, his first crawls and so on. So when I get to handle my second one now all by myself, everyday is always a new beginning for me. And whenever he has done something amazing like smiled, blinked and called me Mommy, I said to myself: why I could not remember that K has done this thing too?..
It is like a fresh starter now. I have lost those precious moment back then but now I get a second chance to make it up. I have exchanged my career-path over a Motherhood. Something that I have no idea about but dare enough to get stranded in it.
I have said this but never hesitate to repeat myself: to many people a full time mother may not mean anything, but screw the world when we mean everything to our son.
