As we celebrate Mother’s Day ensure that you tell your mother you love her and appreciate everything she has ever done for you. For those of us that only have memories of our mom, rejoice in the great times you had together on earth and look forward to the time of being reunited with her again in heaven.
For the ones of you that are young and have never tasted the greatness of motherhood, it is hard to understand what a mother does for her family and children. Her abilities are God given talents that only she can understand. For me being a father and a husband, I do not understand all the things that my wife and the mother of our children was able to do as we raised our children together. Mothers have instincts that no one else can fathom. Many times, they are not given the respect they deserve by their family members or in a public forum.
Reading a story not long ago about a mother renewing her driver’s license really spoke to me about how stay-athome moms are treated. As one mom, a mother of four children, stood in line to renew her license, she overheard the attendant at the desk ask the woman in front of the counter what her occupation is. Not knowing exactly how to respond the attendant said, “Do you have a job?” The young mother said of course I have a job, “I am a mom!” The attendant told her mom was not listed on her report so she would put down that she is a housewife.
