There is no love like the one shared between a parent and a child.
My children mean the world to me. They are the reason I get up in the morning. They are the reason I hold my composure when what I really want to do is cry. My children motivate me to experience the best that life has to offer!
Being a full time parent and simultaneously sustaining a full time job is no easy feat. Keeping a roof over our heads, nurturing my children, and keeping the house tidy is a 24-hour job. I am always on call and never off duty!
Even so, I believe that being a parent is the most rewarding feeling anyone can ever experience.
My children motivate me to get my act together and take life seriously. They inspire me to pursue a high paying and emotionally fulfilling career. Even buying our dream house, so they could each have their own rooms and play in our own yard, is a fulfillment of a dream inspired by my children.
My children motivate me to take better care of my health so I can experience each moment of their lives.
But, most of all, my children inspire me to become a better person. Seeing their innocent faces smiling at me and admiring me is priceless. It is a feeling that I hope to keep in my heart forever. In their eyes, I am a superhero, and I refuse to let them down!
Today, I thank my children for giving me the motivation to build a better life. They deserve the absolute best, so I do everything in my power to give them the life they deserve!
