A brief stroke of motherhood

I had the most amazing moment yesterday in church while carrying one of my friend's kid. While we were worshipping, she leaned her soft head onto my cheeks.

That physical connection between us felt so unbelievably amazing. I held her tiny fingers in my hands and we swung to the wondrous music together.

I cannot explain the emotions that jolted through my body but it did felt like I've been touched by a brief stroke of motherhood. Is this how mothers feel like when their little ones lean on them in complete trust?

What a wonderful experience I had, this was the closest I've ever felt to being a real mother to a child. Not forgetting all the diaper duties, milk making sessions that I've had before. If this is the only opportunity that I had with experiencing motherhood, I would not wanna forget this experience for the rest of my life.

hmmmmm.... simply lovely!

Thank you God! For giving me a glimpse of what it felt like, to hold and protect a young soul in my arms, to sing with joy from my heart, to love unconditionally.
