This month of the year is a little rough for me. My Dad’s birthday was May 7 and my Mom’s birthday was May 17. They are both gone so I guess I am an orphan. Dad died in 1979 just after my high school graduation. When Mom died in 1999 I said something to my sisters about be grown up orphans, none of were thrilled to be orphans, as is anyone who has lost their parents. Every day I am grateful for my Mom. She was a very strong woman and a great role model and loved her children and grandchildren dearly.
Sorry about the Debbie Downer moment, this was supposed to be a happy post. Back to the task. I am honored to be a mother. It is a big responsibility and a very important job. I hope I did a good job taking care of my children. I was so lucky to be able to spend so much time with them. I was able to be a stay at home mom and homeschooled them for seven years. I have been able to see them grown into responsible adults that I am extremely proud of.
I want to thank all mothers and people that have raised children or helped raise someone else’s children. Thank you for taking care of the children, whether yours or someone else’s. And a special thank you for the women who foster and adopt dogs and cats! You have a special place in my heart. Happy Mothers Day.
