Being a Mom is a wonderful thing. It's one of the hardest and most rewarding jobs in the world. And it is a job. But I LOVE it. There are so many reasons I love being a mom. I wanted to share some of them with you.
* I love being the parent my children ask to kill the bugs.
* I love having to leave 30 minutes early to get anywhere 10 minutes late.
* I love having dirt stains on left front thigh and left butt cheek all during sports season from the monkey on my hip.
* I love being called "Mrs. [child's name]'s Mom."
* I'm proud that I don't have stretch marks.
* It makes me smile when my sister in law (Marvelous Marie) tells me she loves my "relaxed parenting style" and wishes she could do the same.
* I love slobbery kisses.
* I love giving spit baths.
* I love having to listen carefully to my four year old's word to understand. It has helped me become a better listener.
* I love being able to stomach Chicken McNuggets & pizza on a regular basis.
* I love that when I get in my minivan after my husband drives it the Hannah Montana CD is cranked up too loud.
* I love that when I go to bed at night I am so tired I can hardly move.
* I love that my son is still excited to tell me about his day.
* I love that my daughter will still hug & kiss me in public.
* I love having 3 little people look up to me like I can do no wrong and like I am their biggest hero in the world.
Happy Mothers Day to all the Moms, Grandmas, Mothers To Be & Moms at Heart. Have a wonderful day dedicated just to you.
