You start with 1 thing.
You start by being a mommy.
That is pretty much a prerequisite, there is no getting around that one.
Next, can be one, or a combination of either of these things:
- You find yourself in a situation where you are doing or saying (with or about or for your kids) something you never though you would do or say in a million years.
- You can have any number of things happen, any of which put into question, by either yourself or the casual observer that maybe, just maybe, you might not have the skills or stamina necessary to survive the event or events.
Finally, you survive and come out a better and stronger mommy in the end!
