So Today Is Mother’s Day
Sometimes I sort of wish it came with a stipulation. Because even amebas reproduce. And while there is such a thing as respect for position alone, it just doesn’t seem like producing offspring should give you a whole entire day of recognition if that was basically all you have done.
I have known women who had children solely for the extra benefits they will get for them. I have known mothers who claim that their children are their everything, yet when it came down to something the child needed vs. going out on the town for a drunken boinkfest, the child lost out every time. I have known mothers who blamed/resented their children for the crime of being born. Yet all these mothers seem to think they should be put in the same catagory with the ones who actually do put their kids first.
So, to all the mothers who understand just how important that position is…..The ones who pay attetion to what they say in front of their kids and who actually DO factor in how much what they do will affect those children; To the mothers who do not resent having to stay up all night to comfort them when they are sick, and have enough love in their hearts to not resent giving up a few extras because that money must be spent on the things her baby needed; To the moms who take seriously the fact that they have brought into this world a whole new human and undergo that responsibility with the best they have to offer; To all THOSE moms….
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO YOU!!!!!

Excellent points. Happy Mother’s Day!
bring them up in the way they should go…that’s all I can say. Kids make US better. “drunken boikfest”! but being a parent is the hardest thing to do, fortunately God helps them survive us. Happy Mother’s Day to you too Samantha, keep on keeping on.
