Today is mother's day. I want to take this opportunity to thank ALL of the women out there who are mothers...who have been mothers...who plan to be mothers. Take this job seriously! I can't stress this enough! I have fond memories of coming home from school to a snack and my mother who was ready to hear about my day. I was the oldest of 5..and I am sure that sometimes she wanted to pull her hair out...but what I remember most was her being there. It was a comfort...and maybe sometimes I didn't appreciate that enough. I feel being a mother is a privilege and an honor. I also feel that once you have made that decision...your life is no longer about you and what you want...but about your kids. I have made the decision to not be a mother...but I am a godmother, an aunt...and I love the kids in my life. I made the choice for a variety of reasons...health, the world, and the knowledge and acceptance that I am not meant to be one. I want to say to all of the mothers out there, you are awesome...and even when you feel like you want to go insane...it is worth it...keep up the great work...and use those people in your life without kids to help you...we will!
Happy Mother's Day!
