Mothers

Being a mother.
What does that mean?
It means you've joined the circus that million of other Moms have joined.
You juggle the times between taking care of your family, work and friends.
You make sure that you have packed up everything you need before going on your next trip.
"Don't for get the daiper bag honey!"
You must have balance on a thin tight rope when things get shaky- don't forget to take care of your husband.
There is practice of manners and potty training.
There is food thrown.
There are times when you want to stick the animal in the cage.
But that doesn't  mean you wouldn't jump through a fiery hoop for your child.

Being a mother means you are going to have the best job.... being a mother means you are going to have an exciting life. You invest in little people. You make more joy in the world. You lose sleep you lose your mind but you find you don't mind that you spend all your time with these beautiful crazy kids. You cry when you don't have the answers they need. You cry when you don't know what to do.
I couldn't be a Mom without my husband.
I couldn't be a Mom without my Mom.
Kids they are the most valuable thing on earth. They are the future. Be patient. Don't push them too hard... give them room to grow. Don't smother them.
A plant needs to breathe.
Take them in the sunshine take them by the hand hold them tight and kiss them every day and night. Make them smile every day. Being a mother what a gift.
