On being a Mom

I've read a quote on the internet saying something like this..

"Motherhood is learning about strenghts you didn't know you had, and dealing with fears you didn't know existed."

When my daughter was conceived, although we had planned about this for a year, I did not have the confidence if I could be a perfect mom. Now she is already going to be 3 years old this December and I am still not confident if I am doing things right.
You see, at her age she is still not talking like those kids her age and her doctor said she is delayed by more than 6 months. The moment I noticed and knew, I became so worried and feared what if my child has a disorder.. Maybe it has been my fault.. the things I did or did not do.. If only this and that.. But then I realized, this was the moment to be a real mother to my daughter. I would try to do the things that will help her, yet if the day came that she will be diagnosed of having a disorder, then I will be here and support her until she needs me.
I may make mistakes along the way, but God knows I live for my daughter's happiness and safety. I could not be a perfect mom but I can be a good mom.

Who could resist that cute smile anyways? Haha! Now I am just currently enjoying playing and communicating with her with ways that only the two (sometimes four including her lolo and daddy) of us knows. :)

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mom's out there from me and my daughter!
