It’s a day to be grateful for Mothers, We all had one or we wouldn’t be here, that’s reason enough right there, to be grateful. Life is a precious gift.
Giving life is not an easy thing and wanting to do it more than once can seem like insanity. Those of us who are not firstborn are grateful Mom was excited about a new baby and seemed to forget the down side to the whole process.
If the pregnancy/giving birth thing wasn’t enough to discourage her, the terrible-two’s and potty training surely should have done it. That alone tells us why mothers need to be appreciated. For a week or more at least, never mind this business of only one day.
If we are truly honest, it’s a wonder some of us made it past childhood. You know who you are, don’t try to hide.
We are grateful for moms who gave us life and loved us enough to let us keep it.

Love you Mom!
Amen! I know I’m a lucky ‘survivor’! They really do deserve more recognition and appreciation than they get!
Wonderful post and Happy Mother’s day to you!

Thanks! I agree they do deserve more recognition than they get. I think it’s easy to forget what our mothers went through to have us. I know I appreciate my mom more when I think about what it took for her to raise the three of us.

Mom’s are a force to be reckoned with.. if you dare. There should be achievement awards for every year a child survives and ‘special circumstance’ medals or something. Mother’s day cards just don’t seem like enough.
