Mothers

Yesterday was Mothers Day. Im so grateful for my beautiful mother and everything she has taught me. My mom has changed over the years, as have I , and so has our relationship. We 've always gotten along great and we probably always will. The older I get, the more I appreciate her, understand her, and forgive her. The forgiveness isnt for anything she did bad , but rather, for things she has no idea about, things that I have wished she had done over the years. At this point in my life, instead of being resentful, I do those things I wished for, for my kids. None of us are perfect, and I know my mother did the best she could. She is a great mother and I love her. Im also very aware that Im not the perfect mom and that I have and will make mistakes too. Every mother does. With that being said, I had a terrific Mothers Day! I love my family so much! They all made sure I had a nice day. I love being a mom! Love it, love it, love it! My hope is that I have been all that they have wished for in a mother , and that when they think of me it brings a smile to their lips and puts a huge warm fuzzy zinger in their hearts! :)
