Let’s find out the most powerful ladies in the world!
There is no beautiful feeling as best described for being and becoming a mother. For every woman, the feeling is the most powerful and something they wish to treasure for the rest of their life.
The feeling of wrapping your arms around your little one describes it in the best way possible. Something inexplicable.
However, bearing a baby and holding a baby don’t go hand-in-hand. Holding your child and watching them grow is different compared to actually bearing one.
