4 Amazing Things Motherhood Teaches You

This blog is for you if you are a mom of young children and you need a simple and sentimental reminder of why our children are our greatest treasures. Because everyone loves a feel good story.

1. Motherhood teaches you to take it slow

We live in a time when everything is instant. We don’t have to wait for anything. And when we want something, we want it now. Motherhood teaches you to slow things down. It’s a reminder that we don’t need to be “go-go-go” all the time. Time goes so, so quickly and once you become a mom it seems to go even faster. So having slower days and enjoying moments is a life lesson in itself. Our children teach us to take in the little things, to look around ourselves and observe, and to ultimately “stop and smell the roses.”

2. It teaches you to see the world through your children’s eyes

This might be one of my favorites. I love taking a step back and seeing the world through my kids’ eyes. Everyday is an adventure to them. They want to learn all the time. Spending family time together and going to the park, or the beach, or a corn maze, is such a big deal to them. They appreciate and truly love doing anything with us. And it’s always, always an experience with them!

3. Motherhood teaches you what unconditional love is

This one might seem obvious, but there’s nothing greater than the love between a mama and her children. It’s an honor and a privilege to be loved by our children and it’s something that should never be taken for granted. Our children also teach and help us to be a better version of ourselves, so we can gain the strength to continue when motherhood gets hard.

4. It actually teaches you that children are our greatest teachers

This is my favorite one. The best one. Things motherhood actually teaches you is that our kids are the very best teachers. Just when we think we need to teach them everything, they blow our minds and prove that they are here to teach us the greatest lessons of life. Love, kindness, humility, strength, perseverance, and so much more are things our children teach us on a daily basis. Children are the best lesson in life that we can have, and should never be taken for granted.

Final Thoughts

Motherhood teaches us so many beautiful lessons. Sometimes you have a dig a little deeper to find the best ones! From slowing down to unconditional love, we ultimately learn that our children are the very best teachers of all and we are truly lucky to have them in our lives. Sometimes I even feel unworthy to be loved by my children! Getting to watch them grow and learn and experience ups and downs with them is the greatest gift of all.
