Reading books,
fixing mac-n-cheese,
making chocolate milk,
finding the favorite blanket in the middle of the night.
Wearing the purple clip in my hair to the library,
singing Amazing Grace as a lullaby,
knowing how to fix curly hair,
smooshing the playdough between my fingers.
Administering medicine,
applying bandaids,
kissing owies,
sending to time-out.
Tieing shoelaces,
snapping seat belts,
playing hide-and-seek,
taking naps in the middle of the day.
Loving unconditionally,
practicing patience,
modeling compassion,
living a life dedicated to God.
It's part of being a mom.
I'm a mom because of Sydney and Jules. My girls.
Happy Mother's Day!
