    List of Ingredients




    I slept as late as I wanted and never worried about how late I got into
    bed. I brushed my hair and my teeth everyday.

    Before I was a Mom -
    I cleaned my house each day.
    I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
    I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
    I never thought about immunizations.

    Before I was a Mom -
    I had never been puked on.
    Pooped on.
    Spit on.
    Chewed on.
    Peed on.
    I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
    I slept all night.

    Before I was a Mom -
    I never held down a screaming child so that doctors could do tests.
    Or give shots.
    I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
    I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
    I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

    Before I was a Mom -
    I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put it down.
    I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop
    the hurt.
    I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
    I never knew that I could love someone so much.
    I never knew I would love being a Mom.

    Before I was a Mom -
    I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
    I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
    I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.
    I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important
    and happy.

    Before I was a Mom -
    I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to
    make sure all was okay.
    I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the
    wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
    I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much before I was a Mom.
