quote about motherhood.

I think I’ve posted this quote before, but it bears repeating. At least for me. Especially today.

“I’d rather be a mother than anyone on earth
bringing up a child or two of unpretentious birth
I’d rather tuck a little child all safe and sound in bed
than twain a chain of diamonds about my {carefree} head
I’d rather wash a smudgy face with round, bright, baby eyes
than paint the pageantry of fame or walk among the wise”

Meredith Gray, from The Beauty of Motherhood
