Wonderland of motherhood

“New mothers enter the world of parenting feeling much like Alice in Wonderland.
- Being a mother is one of the most rewarding jobs on earth and also one of the most challenging.
- Motherhood is a process. Learn to love the process.
- There is a tremendous amount of learning that takes place in the first year of your baby’s life; the baby learns a lot, too.
- It is sometimes difficult to reconcile the fantasy of what you thuoght motherhood would be like, and what you thought you would be like as a mother, with reality.
- Take care of yourself. If Mommy isn’t happy, no one else in the family is happy either.
- New mother generally need to lower their expectations.
- A good mother learns to love her child as he is and adjusts her mothering to suit her child.”
― Debra Gilbert Rosenberg


For quite a few days, I had been planning to start a blog on my ongoing experience as a mother. And today when I stumbled across this quote, which exactly captures my emotions as a new mom, I thought to myself that it was now or never.  

I believe this blog will help me preserve beautiful memories of my motherhood and will also help many of my friends in this Wonderland of motherhood. So cherish every moment........CHEERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
