Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful mothers out there!:heart::flower:
I was a total Mama's boy as a kid. I would follow my Mom around the house, never letting her out of my site. And if she had to use the bathroom, I'd slump down next to the door and start weeping till she came out again:)
She never missed a chance to hug me and tell me she loves me, and she's the same now. And I still wound up a neurotic mess lol! I sometimes imagine if she hadn't been there to share all her love and attention with me...boy I'd be in real trouble. A mother is the most influential figure in most people's lives. A sacred role. Lots of love to all the mother's out there!
Mike!
thank you!!
it reminded me of when Joshie was little ... as i mentioned, it is my first time being a mother ... and i don't plan on ever coming back, so i was REALLY trying to "get it right"
and i was room mother and chaperone on all field trips etc ...
this came in handy later when my sons were older, because i KNEW ALL their friends ... very, very well .. you know ... (big grin)
even for the last birthday he had here in our state, it was a surprise party i was able to pull off because i knew them all personally since they were little!
but i digress,
so this first field trip to Sea World that Joshie was just 9 or 10 or so and we are walking along ... i'm in heaven because my baby is happily holding my hand and doesn't care who sees him
when another little boy (Chance) comes along and with a grin on his face, asks Josh:
"are you a mama's boy?"
i'm pretty sure i held my breath to see what was coming next
he goes on to say:
"cus I AM! ... i LOVE my mama!! i'm going to ask her to come with me next time too!"
man ... i could have kissed that little boy ... who remained his friend til the end and was at said surprise party that would end up being the last they'd see him ...
as mothers? though we love ALL our children equally?? perhaps a little "different" kind of love goes to the one whose heart (and hands) tugs at us a bit more
he continued that hand holding in public at malls etc right up to then end too ...
precious soul i adore with the titality of my being ..
