It’s one of those days. The kids have taken whining to a whole new level, you still haven’t eaten or showered and the thought of leaving the house to run the errands you absolutely have to get done is terrifying. You are probably questioning how you got yourself in to this mess. But for all the hard days of being a mother, there are just as many beautiful and rewarding days. It’s just that the hard days block all those out and sometimes you need a reminder. I personally love quotes so I’ve found a short list that will get you back to enjoying motherhood and reflecting on your blessings in no time!

1. “Mother’s love is bliss, is peace, it need not be acquired, it need not be deserved. If it is there, it is like a blessing; if it is not there it is as if all the beauty had gone out of life.” —Erich Fromm
2. “There’s no way to be a perfect mother and a million ways to be a good one.” —Jill Churchill

5. “Children are the anchors that hold the mother to life. ” –Sophocles
6. “When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts. A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child.” – Sophia Loren
7. “Motherhood: All love begins and ends there.” ~ Robert Browning
8. “Grown don’t mean nothing to a mother. A child is a child. They get bigger, older, but grown. In my heart it don’t mean a thing.” ~ Toni Morrison
9. “I realized when you look at your mother, you are looking at the purest love you will ever know.” ~ Mitch Albom
10. “A mother is the one who fills your heart in the first place.” –Amy Tan
