Close to the goddess?

Merry meet,
When do you feel closest to the goddess?
I'm curious to know.for me it was when my kids were born. When my eldest was born,i di!nt know much about Wicca then but as I've grown into myself spiritually and done my research; I feel that she was with me during that time of my life. I feel that she helped me cope with my son being born unable to see due to congenital cataracts and everything he went through to where he is ,sight wise, now.
I felt that she was there during my second pregnancy as well.guiding me and keeping me calm through my worries with my second child.she was there when I noticed that he had the same congenital cataracts except a much milder case.like she was trying to help keep them from happening but genetics took over anyway.I feel like she kept him from being premature and underweight.
And pregnancy is really a magickal period of time where your body is hard at work creating a human life and you don't have to do anything but listen to what your body tells you that it needs.birth is really a magical process as well even with the pain involved.I believe that the pain is to remind us that we are still human in the moment where we feel like a goddess ourselves.
Some might disagree but that is what I think.I really am in awe at those women who can be surrogate mothers to women who cannot bear children.and I feel heartache for those that lose their children.Its tough being a mother.in any shape,form or fashion.
