Awaiting Aislinn

Monday, May 14, 2007

Mother's Day is one of those holidays I sometimes dread because in the eyes of society I am not a Mother and people don't know whether to say Happy Mother's day to you or not. I am not talking strangers, I am talking of people who know me, know what I have been thru, going thru and where I am heading. If you look up the meaning of mother you would find:
1)A woman who conceives, gives birth to, or raises and nurtures a child.

2)A woman who holds a position of authority or responsibility similar to that of a mother.

Now I haven't given birth to any children( and I wonder what kind of mother I will be) but I have nurtured many,many children and it is because of these children that have paraded thru my life I feel like a MOTHER. I have changed more diapers and wiped more runny noses then most. I have stood on the sideline in the cold during a child's game and sat up during the night when a child has been sick and the mother was at work. I have cooked,fed, bathed, did homework with, played candyland and read books.I have shopped for school supplies & Halloween costumes, sewn buttons on a shirt and carpooled to or from a dance. I have dried many tears and given tons of hugs & kisses.I have listened to dream, and talked about fears. I protect, care, worry and love everyone of the children in my life.Even with all this I am not a MOTHER because the one thing that is missing is the little voice calling me Mommy.

With all this said, it was a Great Mother's day! I received beautiful flowers from my husband,from 3 of my munchkins I got, a really nice card that made me want to cry( they wrote how much they love me) a hanging basket, 2 resin rocks for my garden that say "welcome" & "Friends" with ladybugs on them and my name (DEE) in wood made by Rachie along with a beautiful homemade card and a phone call from my godchild Ariel.
