Motherhood is...nurturing a child
Children grow roots in each other when they've lost one or both parents.
Mirror, mirror on the wall....
Motherhood is… shaking in your shoes worrying about what the future holds!
Motherhood is…tough love
It’s not just the ‘terrible twos’ of the toddler but all those years when we’re putting on a desperate show of mostly mock anger. Putting kids in corners, grounding them for a week, enforcing curfews, taking away Pepsi n chips, forcing spinach n veggies down their throats… The boundaries we’ve laid down get breached. Discipline has to be enforced. This is the hard part of parenting.

Motherhood is…reaping a harvest of masti and mischief
Mark Twain sums it all up:
‘Be respectful of your superiors if you have any, also to
strangers and sometimes to others. If a person offends you and you are in doubt
as to whether it was intentional or not, do not resort to extreme measures.
Simply watch your chance and hit him with a brick.’

Moterhood is...dreaming of one world
The last words Sri Sarada Devi spoke before
she gave up her body are: 'No one is a stranger my dear. Learn to make the whole world your
own.'..... Pic shared courtesy: Unite Women's Org

Motherhood is………holding your heart in your arms
There is a line in ‘Macbeth:’ ‘Methinks I heard a voice cry, “Sleep no more!” I think it applies more to mothers with babes in their arms than to people suffering from a guilty conscience. If you've been blessed with twins like me, you know what I mean...No sleep...For months!

Motherhood is… watching kids reach out and touch the sky.
It’s watching them spread their wings in schools, colleges, offices, factories, labs…

Motherhood is…an empty nest
Children have flown
the nest as they must. Couples have separated, divorced or one spouse is no
longer alive.

Motherhood is…being loved and protected by your kids.
There are many, many kids who love, nurture and look after their parents though there are also elders who suffer great neglect. I’d like this to be a tribute to caring kids who make great sacrifices for their parents.These posts are dedicated to my twins. ‘Somewhere in my youth or childhood/I must have done something good!’
