Becoming a mom increased my capacity for love, patience, understanding, trying new things and even fear. My boys have given me so many breathless moments, I'll never be able to repay them.
I didn't know what "true" love was until I became a mommy, there is no greater joy, it's one of the best feelings in the world and something you feel with your heart in a very big way, everything revolves around them, they became everything I fight to live for and quite honestly they are the most wonderful accomplishments I have ever had in my life!
I know now what real love is. I love my husband dearly but that love is different. My daughter is a part of both of us. That is wonderful
Being a mother has changed me in so many ways. It has given me the definition of what real love is about.
I blogged about it on my myspace blog!

becoming a mom as changed my life so much it isnt funny. I never had my kids (i have 3 of them) i probaly wouldnt be here. I hated my life so much that i have tired to kill my self, cutting, drug overdose. But now that i have my kids it means everything to me, and in my eyes they have saved me from ending my life so soon.
Being a mom is the best thing I could ever do with my life. It's also the hardest thing.

Being a mom has changed my life completely. At times it's worn me down so severely that I think I won't be able to get up, but the kids, with a smile, have given me the energy and the positivity to work through and be the best mom to them. I'm definitely less selfish and more selfless.

Becoming a mom has changed me greatly. You have to put your kids before yourself. They have made me a better person.

How nice! Being a mom made me relize that I do not have to be perfect I just have to love.
This bracelet is gorgeous and I would actually give it to my husbands stepmother. This is why. I did not have a mother growing up. My mom decided she didnt want to be with me while I was 2. All my life, I was cynical thinking there was no such thing as all this love that everyone kept talking about. Of course I loved my father, I loved my husband but I wasnt in love with anything. Until my daughter was born. I was 21 when I had her and the moment I looked into her face, I realized what true love was. My daughter is 8 now and having had her has changed my world. I love every day more then I did the day before and I realize that there is nothing greater or my satisfying then being a mother.

Being a mom has made me appreciate life and grow up.
Becoming a mom has been the greatest thing because of the joys I get to experience every day. Raising my four little ones is an adventure of its own and I like to feel needed. Thanks!
Thank you for having this. The best thing about being a mom is watching your children grow and learn. And of course the hugs and kisses are a fantastic bonus.
I'd give it to my SIL
I have realized how beautiful life is and not to take anything for granted. When I was 7 months along with my first baby, my husband's 21 year old brother passed away in a car accident. I didn't quite know how my mother-in-law felt until I fell in love with my baby and worried about every little thing that happened to her. I realized how terrible it would be to lose a child and I make sure to cherish every moment I have with both my little ones.

becoming a mom was so fulfilling and makes me very happy.
I don't know what my life was like before I had my children. They have taught me so much about love and about what is really important, your family. We are due to have our 3rd in December and I couldn't be happier. Thanks for the great giveaway. ecghick@yahoo.com
Being a mom has taught me NOT to be selfish. It has taught me to love unconditionally and to have understanding and frogiveness. I love being a mom. I would give this to my daughternlaw.
Being a mom has made me who I am. Everything I do, it's for my three beautiful children.
I get led into learning and experiencing lift through other's eyes and interests. Wow, whata trip!!!
I never understood until I had a child of my own. Thanks for the chance.
Being a mom has made me a better person because now I live for them and there future by my example!
Everything!!
Much less selfish!
Being a mom has made me more patient and less selfish.
Becoming a mom changed my life because now when I get my eyes pulled up by two little figers and big slobbery kiss with kids screaming "MOMMY YOU AWAKE?!?" thats a great start of the day.. it makes me relized just how much I am loved and how much they need me... it makes me relize how lucky I am !

I'm a stepmom to a 12 year old girl, and that has taught me to look at life through a child's eyes again. :)

Wow, do you want me to list all the ways, or just a few? Being a mom has taught me that it is okay to make a mistake, we all do and we all learn from them. It has also taught me to love freely. We could all use some rose colored glasses to see the world. Children take things for what they are instead of making them so much more complex. These are just a few ways, but mostly I have learned how to watch my heart go walking around outside my body!

Now that I'm a mother I see things differently. For instance I don't speed because I care more for my child than myself. I don't drink when before I drank socially. I want to be the best example for my daughter that I can be. I'm always trying to find ways to get discovered so that I can stay home and raise her possibly homeschool her after nearly ten years as a teacher in public education. I could go on and on, but thanks! Make sure you check out my giveaway for a personalized Princess Bracelet! http://uniquelyyoursbyshay.wordpress.com
I have your button.
I have a whole new perspective on life. Your child really makes you view the whole world differently. She's my angel.
Being a mom means the world to me --- it is the most important job out there!!! I got my teaching degree and have taught for several years part time but still found it took too much time away from my children. I have recently stepped back from my career to be more at home for my children because I truly believe its the best choice for me and my children. Would love to win this prize!!!!
My "job" as a mom entails the worst hours, terrible pay and the most demanding clients - but it is THE BEST JOB EVER!!!

Being a mom has taught me unselfishness to a degree I never thought I was capable. I have been given the gift of raising children and have never taken it for granted. It's a true blessing and I have cherished every moment of it. I have never felt more fulfilled by anything in my life than I have from being a mother.

Being a mom has taught me unconditional love.
I didn't know I could love each of my kids as much as I do. I worry about them, I pray for them, and I love them. I think it's a good job to be a mom. And I love the keychain!
It took me outside of myself and look at the world in a different and entirely fresh way. I also have had to step outside of my comfort zone many times being a mom. :)
Beautiful. Thanks for the chance. Becoming a Mom matured me, I was young with my first and it has also taught me to live everyday as it was my last and love every second of it.

My little ones make life better no matter what I face its them that bring me such joy. One of the many things I love about my kids is when they say Please, No Thank You with out me telling them too, they are so special to me and they give me reason to go on even though my marraige has had its ups and downs they make it all okay!!
Becoming a Mom has helped me to become more patient and understanding. It also has helped me to understand what everyone was trying to tell me about the love you feel for your own child. I could never imagine this feeling before I actually became a Mom. It is amazing! I love being a Mommy more than anything in the world! Thanks for the awesome contest!

There is no greater gift in this world than a child! I could have a bad day or not feel well and when Samuel smiles it all disappears! I almost lost him three times during my pregnancy and he is a gift from God! I would definitley keep this bracelet for myself as a reminder of how lucky I am!!!!! :)
Being a mom has changed my life for the better! I always see things through my kids eyes and it makes me smile all the time. I couldn't imagine not having that!
Being a mom has made my life complete. I truly love being a Mom,it is the most rewarding experience I have ever had. What it has done for me is to appreciate the smallest things of this world. The mere words: Mom I love you - just melts my heart. It has given me a bond that I would have never experienced,seeing the world so differently has impacted my life tremendously.

My son is the best thing that ever happened to me. I would keep it for myself.
Life is more fun and meaningful with kids. I LOVE to play with them (thats why my house isn't as clean as it should be, I play too much). The joy they bring me really cannot be described in words. All you moms know what I mean.
love being a mom its the best thing that has happened to me!
I've learned to get along with my family better now that I am about to have one of my own.

I have really learned to slow down and take the time to appreciate my kids and the world that they live in.
My son and daughter have taught me so much about how much the world has changed. The love and laughter and memories we have gave to each other are beyond replacable.
Being a Mom has brought me closer to my own mother. It also taught me patience and unconditional love.
I have learned to enjoy the little accomplishments in life. A cup of tea in the afternoon or a story told to a sleepy child or my dog rubbing my hair after I've conditioned it. Enjoy every little moment because they are soon gone.
Being a mom is very special! I can't remember what it's like not to be one!

My kids are grown now and I truly believe that I may not be here without them. I was moving in a wild direction, but when I had my first child everything changed and being a mother overrode thoughts of doing anything else. I couldn't imagine my life without them.

Being a mom has changed my life for the better because it has helped me forget all the pain that I have gone through in the past and helped me to focus on a brighter future.
Being a mother of 3 young children has given me the motivation to always put my best foot forward, to give me the power to believe I can achieve anything in life I set my mind to, it has given me the strength to overcome obstacles that cross my path. Being a Mother makes me feel almost Super Woman like because I want to be the best role model I can possibly be for my children. I want them to be all these things, so I have to demonstrate to them it is all possible. Being a Mother has also made me feel more Love that I ever thought was possible, and never knew existed within me.

having children has actually taught me to value the little things. i learned not to worry about the stains when little hands reach out for a hug. I've learned that patience is more than a virtue it's a necessity. Finally i learned that you really don't need as many hours of sleep as you once thought
Becoming a mom has shown me that the getting your own way and being the center of your universe isn't what life is all about. Now I understand everything my parents said when I was growing up. The trick is to let them grow up without losing your mind!
Thank you for the contest!
Being a mom has taught me how to
love without boundaries and care
for others.It hs also taught me
hope.That when things look bleak
keep going and things will get
better.Most of all it has taught
me how to be a child again,to
laugh and play no matter how old you get.I love being a Mom!

Being a mom has changed my life for the better because it's helped me find a purpose to life. Before I had children I was going to college taking classes but had no idea what kind of degree I wanted. In all honesty, I didn't even want a degree then... I went to please my parents. Now that I'm a stay at home mom to two children, I finally feel like my life is going somewhere and I've realized that I'd like to possibly become a nurse in L&D or a lactation consultant.
I love being a mom...you see the whole totally different.
I'm not a mom but something nice my mom did was get a cute little radio for me.
