Parenting was a participle, like going
and doing and crusading and worrying;
it was active, it was energetic, it was unrelenting.

There are a LOT of amazing mothers in my life. Beginning with the one that gave birth to me, raised me, put up with all my crap when I was a teenager, the one that loved me no matter what; the one that sewed and cleaned and cooked and worked without a stitch of outward gratitude from a teenager with attitude... she is an angel incarnate. How was I so blessed to call her mom!!?
And then I was fully embraced by the mother who raised my perfect Builder.... where I have received nothing but love and acceptance from her as well.
And talk about examples....both these woman are amazing. I will never be the women they are...but thats ok too....cause they both love me anyway.
And what about the amazing women who are the mothers to my beautiful grandchildren!!
And how about their mothers...each of whom are marvelous women who enrich my life when we get to visit with them.
And what about the amazing mothers of the awesome cousins that my kids and I enjoy so much!!
There truly is no end to the list of powerful, delightful, generous women in my life and in all of our lives.
Happy Mothers Day one and all!!!
