My Inspiration
Many emotions evoloved when I discovered I was pregnant. One such emotions was FEAR! I was afraid of being responsible for another human life. I wondered if I had any thing of value to offer. I couldn't imagine how drastic my life would change; and that's just the short list. Like many parents everything changed when I first met my children.
They are innocent, selfish, sweet, loving beings that are the perfect mix of mom and dad. What I did not expect was how much they would teach me. Because of my children, my opinion of my parents has changed. I now understand how unprepared they were for my siblings and myself and somehow the mistakes they made are not as significant.
The world, though vast, seems much smaller. People, though different, seem more connected. A mother's love transcends ethinc, racial, gender, sexuality, religious, political barriers. When you see a mother weep for her children, as a mother, you feel her pain whether you understand her cries.
I have new strength to withstand much that is thrown at me and a Supernatural strength when it comes to protecting my children.
Above all it's the laughter, which fills my house, that gives me GREAT JOY! I can't imagine being without my babies, yet unfortunately I know they will not be babies long. That is why I started this blog. I want to record all that I can; to preserve for them all that they have given me. I am growing and learning from my babies, they inspire me to get up everyday and work towards an ultimate goal. And as long as the Lord sees fit to allow us to be together, I pray I don't damage them too badly.
My GREATEST wish, is when they are grown-up and living their lives, I hope they call me Mom & Friend!
I am a working mother and this is my song!
