‘You were the size of a poppy seed when I fell in love with you, barely a blip on the ultrasound screen. In an instant, I knew life would never be the same.’: Mom shares sweet ode to daughters

“I never believed in the notion of love at first sight, but when they first laid you on my chest and I looked at you through the tears, I knew it to be true. Unconditional, infinite love. When you are old and gray, and I am older and grayer, when the world has long stopped seeing you as a baby, I will look at you and still see the one I rocked in my arms. And I will love you.”

‘A friend asked if I wanted to know what another mom said about me behind my back. I politely said, ‘No thank you.’ To this day I still have no idea.’: Woman urges ‘the tables you aren’t invited to sit at don’t matter’

“What I do know is that I saw this mom a few weeks later at the grocery store and greeted her with a smile and open arms. To this day she has no idea I’m aware of the fact she said something unkind behind my back. And friend, it doesn’t matter.”
