What better way to wake up on Mother's day, than to hear your child's breathing/snoring? It is the perfect reminder to appreciate those near and dear. I have heard this week, that Mother's Day is a day for mom to rest, away from her children. I disagree, I really believe Mother's Day is a day that both mother and children should rest together. We have many demands put on us during the week, and for many even more on the weekends with sports and activities. In the past people took one day off to spend with their family and to be one spiritually. Although others joke today is just another holiday made up and capitalized by the card/flower companies, I would like to think of today as a day of family rest. Breaking from the demands and stress of day to day living, the children and I will take turns doing activities each of us enjoy, showing each of us how much we love and care by doing it with them.
To my friends who are mothers already, take a little extra time today to hug and kiss your children, remember that they are the reason people are celebrating you today. For those who are celebrating their first Mother's Day as a mom, begin to make traditions with your little one(s) as you are the key holder for this door. Those who little one(s) will enter into the world after today, celebrate today as you are already caring and loving the little bundle in your tummy. A special note to those who have tried and have not been able to become a mother, my love and hugs go out to you especially, may all of us who are take an extra minute to provide you with some added comfort today. Lastly, whether your mom is sitting next to you, on the phone, or above, make sure you take the time to thank her for providing you with the greatest gift of all.....your life. Without if this world would not be so great. How will you leave your mark for a super Sunday?
