I Used to Think

za7y8438

I used to think I knew everything, then I attended college.

I used to think money would buy happiness, then I held my first real job.

I used to think I understood sacrifice, then I entered marriage.

I used to think I could hold onto youth, then I became pregnant.

I used to think I felt tired, then I breastfed morning, noon, and night.

I used to think I was the perfect mother, then I welcomed a second child.

I used to think I knew how to love, then I watched my kids love.

I used to think I could change the world, and I still can.

Through the hearts of two little people.
