Starting from 1st of April, please join me in an emotional odyssey of motherhood, for the next thirty days.
The AtoZ Blogging Challenge is a month-long blogging challenge wherein the participating blogger writes one blog post a day on a chosen theme. The title of the blog posts will follow the alphabetical series, that is, the first blog post (on April 1st) will be titled or themed with a word beginning with the alphabet A, with alphabet B on April 2nd and continue up till alphabet Z on April 30th. Sundays are holidays, as always.
I am glad that the AtoZ challenge let’s us pick a theme of our choice. The assigned date for theme reveal was March 20th. It took me another eleven days to pull up my will; eleven days because the challenge begins on the twelfth day :lol: Yes, from tomorrow, I will be posting a series of blog posts on the theme:
‘The Very Many Emotions of Motherhood’
We all know that a mother is an embodiment of love, an epitome of sacrifice, a this of that and a that of this! Yes, we’ve seen, read and heard all the nicest things about her. However, seldom do we understand the frustrations behind her patience, the playfulness behind her maturity, the sadness behind her joys and so much more hidden emotions of motherhood.
As a mother of two, as a stay-at-home-mom and as an ever-learning, ever-evolving mom, I am looking forward to share my A to Z everyday emotional rides, through my blog, in the next thirty days. I invite all of my readers to please join in here and share your emotional experiences along with me.
