There is one more day to celebrate this month.
May 14, 2017 is Mother’s Day. Celebrate it with creative gifts with your mum or nanay or mommy or whatever you call her in the process. They need not be expensive gifts that you have to buy. You can even share your precious time with her.
The gift of motherhood.
Precious.
Wonderful.
Lovely.
There was a time when you were old enough to take care of your younger siblings that you wondered how it is to be a mother. There was a time when you asked yourself, will I be a mother someday? Will I be good? Will I be blessed with lovely and wonderful kids?
There is no cut and dried formula that would make you the best mother in the world. There is no hard and fast rule that you have to follow. Motherhood is a learned experience and that comes from the heart. Once you become one, you are like a bear always protecting her cubs.
Who says motherhood is easy?
Being a mother may be the hardest job you will ever have. 24/7 may not be enough for you to learn things along the way. It’s funny how sometimes you learn from a mere baby. The gift of patience, the gift of giving, the gift of unconditional love – these will always be learning curves in your life. You smile at the thought of those early days when a mere movement of your sleeping child was a pause for concern. You smile at the thought when you catches his or her glance and smile back at you. You remember the first words. you keep record of those days when they first learned those words, when they first learned how to walk, when their first tooth appeared, when they had their first hair cut. The many blessings of firsts in their lives.
You don’t stop to be a mother just because you turned sixty. You’ll always be one until the end of your life. When you are blessed with caring and responsible kids, it’s really a big bonus. When you are blessed with smart and intelligent kids, it’s probably like you won in a major lotto draw although when you are blessed with kids, it would be enough.
Motherhood.
I would not exchange it to any occupation in the world.
