Motherhood comes in many forms, whether you’ve given birth, adopted a child, or fill a motherly role for a family member or friend. The hope of most mothers (biological or otherwise) is to raise their child to be a self-sufficient and responsible adult—an enormous undertaking that usually (okay, always) involves a lot of personal sacrifice. A mother’s love is the driving force that allows her to push through overwhelm, exhaustion, and frustration, often sacrificing her own needs and wants for those of her child. Through it all, being a mother is one of life’s greatest and most rewarding gifts.
