From Mom

 
Behind the cards, handmade, flowery, sweet and sincere...



 ...are the kids loved from their creation...


They know their mom like the back of their own hands; they shower her with flowers, with baseball, with history..but there is no measure for the endless joy and pride she takes in them.
Now grown with youngsters of their own, they are learning the hard lessons of give and take, when to stand firm and when to give in, when to build fences and when to set free.





 ...as mothers have learned to do from generation to generation.  We rock, we cuddle, as long as we dare...








 ....we take pleasure in what we teach.....
...what we share....
 
 
because you can never hug, listen, comfort, pray, or laugh too much...



I am not the best at the job of being a mom...


...but it is the job I love best....

  1. I am always sure I am messing things up as a mom and on the days that I feel the worst, one of my boys always looks at me and says, "You are the best mom ever!" We may not be the best moms, but we are the best moms for our kids and that is what matters the most. Have a fabulous day!
