Happy Mother's Day
Who comes to mind when you hear the word ‘Mom’? I hope it accompanies a wave of warmth and peaceful sensations. I do realize that not all experience share such a euphoric feeling – and if those feelings are justified, then this post is not about those mothers nor what Mother’s Day was created for.
Mother’s Day is for the honoring the mom’s out there that do deserve the praise of a job well done. Many times, this job goes truly unappreciated until we have our own children. And then, even as busy parents, still don’t grasp what our moms sacrificed for our well-being. That I believe is a life-long journey.
Mother’s Day is a day to recognize our mom’s patience as she juggled a life that she had come accustomed to before us – to the life she slowly realizes would demand 100% of her time and devotion. Perseverance and responsibility may start soon after conception but grows as the child grows from inside the mother to many years after her own children have grown and moved on from her.
This is what I have experienced – the older my children get… the more I respect the job of mothering my mother did for me and how it changed and adapted over the years.
And now I am lucky to have children and grandchildren of my own. There is no greater joy than to be a mom… unless if it is to have had such a great mom myself!
