Mother's Day

Happy mother's day to all those caring for families around the world. Without a doubt this is the most difficult job any human will ever undertake in their lifetime; and with little reward or appreciation.

First... we have Moms who carry and literally nourish our unborn selves for nine months. Soon to be followed by the process of safely delivering us into the world; not an easy or painless task. Our arrival brings many years of hard work, dedication, unconditional love and support and personal sacrifice.

How quickly the memory of birth pangs depart with the arrival of our smile.

Second... we have Moms who for various reasons are unable to provide the above except for the process of getting us here. Not that they didn't want to complete the life cycle with their child; it simply wasn't feasible. They made the ultimate sacrifice by allowing their child a better future that the one currently available.

I am fortunate to have one of these special moms.

Third... we have moms who have taken on other peoples children out of love and compassion. Dedicated to do their best in helping them to grow and learn in a loving and safe environment. Their hearts know no difference after the adoption process and love flows freely.

Again, I have been blessed with a special one of these too!

Fourth...we have moms who step in only for short moments in child's life, providing safe havens until permanent homes become available. They heal the wounds and prop up damages souls best they can, sometime without any recognition for their efforts.

And suffer in silence when that role is ended.

Fifth...we have moms who marry into existing families and struggle to become the glue to bond everyone together. They become determined not to see who's child is who's but which child has need and lovingly give it.

Always with the idea to blend two families into one.

Sixth...we have moms who by their child's marriage expand their role and extend their love willingly to whatever stranger their child bring into their home. It isn't always easy to know how to fit in, but support and patience always opens hearts and doorways.

I have been quite bless with two wonderful Mother-in-laws as well.

So...take a moment to give thanks for all those women who willingly took on the task of giving you life, loving you unconditionally, and even putting up with you special personality traits.
