Motherhood is a beautiful phenomenon. Once this tiny person enters your life, you instantly evolve from this person who once put herself first into this nurturing, selfless creature. Children can turn your world upside-down and you find yourself ok with that reality, as life is only enhanced upon their arrival. They also make you see things and life through new eyes. It’s a precious feeling all around and as that child grows up, the need to make them feel loved and feel a belonging is stronger with each passing year. ...

That confidence and pride creates a kinship we now hold with our daughters. Not long ago these same women would have been relaxed and the hair of their daughters would have not resembled theirs. Now we see a closeness between mother and child, and as a daughter literally and figuratively looks up to her mother she can fully see the commonality between them. This becomes reinforcement of who she will become and who she already loves begins to solidify. If you want your daughter to love herself, then you must love yourself first, internally and externally. ...
