In another exclusive with Briefly News, the entrepreneur, and author shared what being a mom means to her:

“Motherhood means family, joy, unconditional love, acceptance, and contentment. Motherhood is a priceless gift that cannot only be explained in words.
“From the time it begins during conception to the day you finally meet your baby, a lot has happened but what stands out for me is the strong bond and falling deeply in love with someone you've never yet met nor seen but carried inside you.
“Motherhood has brought the best out of me and that's what it does, and that's what makes it so priceless.”

Gail notes that being a parent comes with various obstacles:

“Truth is, some days are hard and some days are easy, but ultimately, the joy of raising this small human is so powerful. The bond is divine and I wouldn't trade this experience, this moment, and this ‘era’ for anything."

The 30-year-old opened up about how she’ll spend Mother’s Day:

“This year, as a first-time mom, I want it to be special. So, my little family and I have planned an outing that will include a picnic, good music, good food, and lots of memories to create. Apparently, there's a special gift I will be receiving and I can't wait.”

Gail wishes all mommies well on this special day:

“May this day be a reminder that you are doing your best and the fact that you are trying is good enough.
“Above all, a special Mother's Day dedication goes out to mothers waiting to conceive, who have waited and have been longing for a child, those who did conceive but never got to hold their babies, and those who held their babies but couldn't take them home (death).
