I am so thankful for the mama that spent her time pouring into my little boy's life while I was terrified about being a full time working mom and he wasn't breathing in his sleep. She changed our life. She took a CPR class, loved on him, cared for him, and I'm confident she prayed for him even on the days that he wasn't visiting her home on the weekends. She cared for him like one of her own. My B is who he is today because of her impact in our life. We saw love, felt love, and learned real mama love from her. So thank you Nana (and Beau). We love you.
Lets thank the mamas who are waking up alone today, and her kids are needing every minute of her attention from sun up to after sun down. The mamas who are doing this thing called life by themselves and raising little world changers without the help that we can easily take for granted. The single mamas who are stronger, braver, and more tired than we will ever know. You are so loved.
We also can't forget the mamas who are raising littles or grown ones who were not physically from their own body. They welcome them into their home with love, care, and safety. Whether they are helping raise their grand babies, foster loves, or relatives..you are a mother. You are pouring your heart into others so that they can have a better life. You are loved.
And heres to the mamas who go to work at schools every day and love on 20 something children like their own. The mamas who really are single working women, married without biological children, moms with your children in childcare, or even empty nesters. You mother these babies day in and day out at a place called school. And we all know it's the best when they accidentally call you "mom" and they blush and you just grin. Because you are their mamas when their's are not with them. You are teaching them about their world, how to love learning, and that you are brave enough to help them be the best they can be. Its not easy to teach, and you do it well. Thanks for being their mama.
To the mamas who are waiting for their babies on the other side of the world to come home. HOME. Because your heart is breaking daily and you can't stop thinking about their smile, their tears, and their hugs. You are loved. You are a mama. Your love goes beyond oceans, countries, and paperwork. Your love is bringing them home.
To the birth moms who made the decision to let your baby have a better life with a new family. Your heart told you they needed more, and your love is limitless. You are celebrated today even though your heart aches.
To the mom who won't get to see her baby face to face, and see them grow up because they went to heaven way too soon. We love you and we see you. You will have the best mother's day party ever in heaven. Because you have been a mama from day one. Nothing can ever change that.
To the moms who wipe the tears, kiss the boo-boos, make the meals, clean the house, and go to sleep to do it all again the next morning..thank you. You are the glue.
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms, because you are not forgotten.
You are so loved, and you make the world go round.
