“It is the custom of every good mother after her children are asleep to rummage in their minds and put things straight for next morning, repacking into their proper places the many articles that have wandered during the day. If you could keep awake (but of course you can’t) you would see your own mother doing this, and you would find it very interesting to watch her. It is quite like tidying up drawers. You would see her on her knees, I expect, lingering humorously over some of your contents, wondering where on earth you had picked this thing up, making discoveries sweet and not so sweet, pressing this to her cheek as if it were as nice as a kitten, and hurriedly stowing that out of sight. When you wake in the morning, the naughtinesses and evil passions with which you went to bed have been folded up small and placed at the bottom of your mind; and on the top, beautifully aired, are spread out prettier thoughts, ready for you to put on.”
― J.M. Barrie

-- we might think that we’ve got alot in our own minds, what we forget is that our moms have waaaaay more than we do. Multiply that to how many children she have. So If your mom seem a little crazy, it just means she still think you’re her little baby. Take time to appreciate the craziness, because it’s one of her ways to tell you she loves you more than her sanity. That is how our mom is. She has 4 crazy children to think of. She might be overbearing at times but it’s always for our own good. At times I get annoyed by it but I know it’s just how much she loves us that even if we’re already in our mid-twenties, she still think we’re toddlers, and I agree because it feels that way sometimes. And I know I drive her crazy way more than my sibling does.

“Everyone is guilty at one time or another of throwing out questions that beg to be ignored, but mothers seem to have a market on the supply. "Do you want a spanking or do you want to go to bed?" Don't you want to save some of the pizza for your brother?" Wasn't there any change?”

― Erma Bombeck

-- I have been with pre-school kids or kids in general, they asks a ton of questions. Questions you wouldn’t have the patience to answer ,for it will always be preceded by more. Thing is, moms do the same thing. To be honest I can’t count how many times I have rolled my eyes. Sometimes she thinks I’m ignoring her,which drives her up the wall. Well guilty as charged. Sometime I get caught up in my head that sometimes I ignore the world.

There are a lot of times that we take our mothers for granted. We do things that seems a little harmless but it hurts them a lot. We say things out of selfishness that we forget we are nothing if they aren’t there. We might not be in good terms with them, they might not be good mothers in our own perspective, but we forget some people didn’t even had the chance to feel a mother’s love because of various circumstances. Mother’s day is a day where we can be extra thankful (aside from their birthdays) because God had given us the perfect mothers for us. Perfect,in a sense only them can fill the void that we don’t even know we have. So an “I love you” every once in a while is already enough to fill their hearts with warmth.

Happy Mother’s Day to all.

As always, Steem on!
