Being a Mother-

Nothing in life is more important than your family. Give them the time they deserve, because these things cannot be put offtill 'some other time.'* * * Somebody said it takes about six weeks to get backto normal after you've had a baby.... somebody doesn't know that once you're a mother,'normal' is history.* * *Somebody said you learn how to be a mother byinstinct . somebody never took a three-year-old shopping.* * *Somebody said being a mother is boring ....somebody never rode in a car driven by a teenager with a driver's permit. Somebody said if you're a'good' mother,your child will 'turn out good'....somebody thinks a child comes with directions and a guarantee.* * *Somebody said you don't need an education to be amother.... somebody never helped a fourth grader with his math.* * *Somebody said you can't love the second child as much as you love the first ... somebody doesn'thave two children.* * *Somebody said the hardest part of being a mother is labor and delivery....somebody never watched her 'baby' get on the busf or the first day of kindergarten ..or on a plane headed for military 'boot camp.'* * *Somebody said a mother can stop worrying after her child gets married....somebody doesn't know that marriage adds a new son or daughter-in-law to amother's heartstrings.* * *Somebody said a mother's job is done when her last child leaves home....somebody never had grandchildren.* * *Somebody said your mother knows you love her, so you don't need to tell her.... somebody isn't a mother.* * * Pass this along to all the 'mothers' in your life and to everyone who ever had a mother. This isn'tjust about being a mother; it's about appreciating the people in your life while you have them....no matter who that person is!
