can count on her to help me through whatever I'm going through with Cati.
Ahh I miss the 80s!
Here are her answers:
1) One ugly truth about motherhood. One ugly truth about motherhood is that it is the most difficult job a woman will ever have. It will be the source of many conflicts throughout my existence on this earth. Am I instilling the right values, am I spending enough quality time, should I be...? etc. So many questions that I find myself second guessing my belief system.
2) What does motherhood mean to you? Motherhood to me means unconditional love. Allowing Alexander the freedom to be who he is without fear of rejection. I want to always affirm that he is ok just the way he is.
3) How has motherhood empowered you? Motherhood has empowered me by forcing me to serve as a positive role model to Alexander. Now that I have someone looking up to me as an example, I feel the pressure to make better choices.
Thank you Esther for inspiring me everyday and for showing me that family doesn't have to be synonymous with c-r-a-z-y.
