Mother's Day is this weekend so I thought I would share this poem that I found. It is especially for all of the ladies out there who are also using 'hope' to cope with this Mother's Day.
“Happy Mother's Day” it comes around every year; but when you have empty arms, it's very hard to hear. It's a day to celebrate a mother, for all the trials she overcame; and a reminder to an infertile of her loneliness and shame. But what really makes a mother, Is it just conception and birth? Or is there something more, that shows a mother's worth? It's putting your child first, in everything you do; it's sacrifice and determination, and love and patience too. An infertile woman makes all her plans, around a child not yet conceived; she loves them even though they aren't here, more than she ever could have believed. She appreciates and understands, what a blessing that children are; she works hard for just a chance, that motherhood is not that far. All odds are stacked against her, and yet she still has hope; everyday is another struggle, finding ways to help her cope. So even though her arms are empty, she can still be a mother too; So say a special “Happy Mother's Day” for those waiting for their dreams to come true!
