A burning connection between a mother and her son

Those of us blessed with sons know that there’s an undescribable connection that a mother and son have between each other. I am fortunate enough to have 2 sons and while they’re loud and rough and smelly (oh, so smelly!!)as they are growing up. I love them so much that it’s hard to put in to words. 

I recently reflected on my feelings as a mother of a son and the words will probably resonate with other mothers completely if you have a son. 

"Although my son is already a little grown-up I still remember how I was warned before having him that boys love their mamas — and I thank my friends for the fair warning. But what no one warned me about was what the deep, burning, connection that I’d feel with my son. A connection that only him and I will ever understand. The connection that is only known between a mama and her boy. 

It’s so true! When I had my first son people all around me told me how boys love their mamas and I was so happy for that. I didn’t realize how protective, responsible, and passionate I would feel back.  I have a daughter too and I think I also have a deep burning connection with her, but it’s just different than with my boys. 

This little brave little boy has been through so much and yet his love and attachment to myself is still so pure. A son is a gift to a mother. Such a beautiful soul blessed by God. 

"Another soul connected to mine from the moment we met. Never a moment of separation. My heart melted with his. A true love that will last a life time. An inseparable bond. Mother and son" 

The loves of my life are truly a mixture that blend to keep my heart complete.
