Brenda Song reveals unexpected lesson motherhood taught her

Benda Song shared a "big lesson" she learned as a mother of two.

In a recent chat with People, the Running Point actress opened up about her journey of motherhood as a working woman and spilled some plans ahead of Mother's Day.

"As moms, you are running around all the time," Song began who shares two kids Carson, 2, and Dakota, 3, with Home Alone star, Macaulay Culkin.

The 37-year-old actress went on to say, "You have so much on your plate, even when you don't realize it, just because of your kids. I mean, these little people depend on you, [and] you do everything for them. And you forget to sometimes take care of yourself."

"That's what I really love about a day like Mother's Day, where it's just you take a second to just take a deep breath. And you know what? We deserve a little bit of appreciation. Moms do a lot," she noted.

Song further added that after becoming a mom she has more sympathy with her own mother.

"I look at my mom and I'm like, 'I don't know how she does it,'" the actress said, expressing her gratitude towards her mom. "I remember, two weeks after having my first son, I looked at my mom and I was like, 'Mom, I'm so sorry for anything I've ever done to upset you or hurt you or anything.' "
