What does being a mother mean to you?

What does being a mother mean to you?

As part of their #FirstMoments campaign, Save the Children and several celebrity moms that include Jennifer Garner, Jennifer Connelly and Allyson Hannigan join with celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe and moms worldwide to relate the thoughts they experienced prior to giving birth. Even with resources available to them, these moms still experienced countless fears throughout the process.

We appreciate the open discussion and sharing that Save the Children has initiated with this powerful video. The moms visibly struggle to verbally express the overwhelming feelings which they experienced in those memorable #FirstMoments of seeing their child. “I felt immeasurable love. The kind of love I never imagined was possible.” The first day of life is the most dangerous day of a child’s life in countries rich and poor around the world, including the United States.

Motherhood is challenging, filled with enormous joys and fears. This Sunday the Children’s Prize wants to THANK mothers around the world for the sacrifices they make for their loved ones.“Every mother just wants what’s best for their child. Wants them to be healthy and strong and happy and just have more than they had themselves.”

This Mother’s Day, what are you most grateful for?
