Motherhood is....

Knowing that every morning you have a reason to wake up, if for nothing more than to fix him some strawberries & cream instant oatmeal

Learning you can love someone so much that you've only known a short amount of time

The ultimate compliment to your mother by instilling her values in your child

Finding joy in running in the rain with someone who finds it fascinating

The perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon

Knowing that you are much stronger than people give you credit for

Having a bond with a complete stranger just because you have that in common

A way for your parents to vicariously spoil and punish you at the same time

Showing a patience you never knew you possessed

Watching Toon Disney s0 much you know the schedule

Wanting to absorb the pain so that he doesn't have to feel it

Knowing that the pain will only serve to make him stronger so he has to experience it

Sitting in traffic for two hours just so you can get home and watch him write his name five times

Being late for work every morning so you can be there to help him dress every morning

Smiling when you see him tell someone they look nice

Never getting tired of receiving wild weeds as flowers each time he goes out to play

Giving him the last cookie just you're about to take a bite and he walks in the room

Not getting that pedicure because he needs another pair of tennis shoes

Proof that God exists and he smiles favorably upon you...

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
