Mothering

taken by Elliot Erwitt his wife and first child










The older I get the more I realize "I am beginning to learn that it is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all." -Laura Ingalls Wilder



I know I've posted that quote here before it's one of my favorites along with " The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched-they must be felt with the heart." - Helen Keller

Mothering to me is the hardest work I've ever undertook and the most wonderful. If I had to do all over again I would in a heartbeat though some days I complain I wouldn't, I would with all my heart.

Often the work I do is done in quiet, rarely even realized but I try to remember how important it is. "All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel Mother."-- Abraham Lincoln
I never really had a Mom and I can tell you there are still days I long to be safe in Mommy's arms. I don't thing there is anything in this world that can make up for a lack of a mother's love. Mothers matter,what you do or don't do as a Mother matters more then we will ever fully appreciate here.
"So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up." Galatians 6:9 I have a love hate relationship with that verse. LOL!




Today is your day moms and I hope the people you are loving, are loving on you today.
