Mom, Mommy, Mother, Ma

Tomorrow (the 10th) is Mother's Day. Partially I feel this is a made up holiday, however, I enjoy the fact that there's a day to honor the fact that I'm a mom ... it's a hard job after all. These are the 10 things I love best about being a mom:
  1. good morning smiles
  2. thoughtful "I love yous"
  3. looking in their faces and seeing parts of me
  4. dancing, laughing, tickling moments
  5. the looks on their faces when I do something they appreciate
  6. the fact that they're all sitting at the dining room table right now making cards for me
  7. knowing that they'll be mine forever
  8. the fact that when they're sad, I'm the only one who can help them feel better
  9. hugs for no reason
  10. getting to spend tons of time with them

Being a mom is a hard, laborious, sometimes gruelling job ... but I love it, and I would never trade it for any other job in the world. (and I think I have the BEST kids ... but I'm probably a little biased)
