Room for Enough Love

In my latest piece, I ventured the depths of motherhood from a child's perspective. As a child, I never quite understood how a parent could love equally. How could there be more love with more kids? My dad said it the best, We don't love a child any more or less than another child; we love you differently. As a parent now, I understand what that means. Each child has their own personality, their own interests. There's no possible way each child could be loved the "same" or the same amount. So, together with my siblings we belong to one mother. We share a special friendship to that one mother. We share a special bond with that one mother, which in turn creates a special bond between us.
