For those of you who are great moms, those of you who plan to be great moms and those who have great moms and those of you who had great moms...
REAL MOTHERS
Real Mothers don't eat quiche; they don't have time to make it.
Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils are probably in the sandbox.
Real Mothers often have sticky floors, filthy ovens and happy kids.
Real Mothers know that dried play dough doesn't come out of shag carpets.
Real Mothers don't want to know what the vacuum just sucked up.
Real Mothers sometimes ask 'Why me?' and get their answer when a little voice says, 'Because I love you best.'
Real Mothers know that a child's growth is not measured by height or years or grade...It is marked by the progression of Mama to Mom to Mother...

The Images of Mother
4 YEARS OF AGE - My Mommy can do anything!
8 YEARS OF AGE - My Mom knows a lot! A whole lot!
12 YEARS OF AGE - My Mother doesn't really know quite everything.
14 YEARS OF AGE -Naturally, Mother doesn't know that, either.
16 YEARS OF AGE - Mother? She has no clue!
18 YEARS OF AGE - That old woman? She's way out of date!
25 YEARS OF AGE - Well, she might know a little bit about it.
35 YEARS OF AGE - Before we decide, let's get Mom's opinion.
45 YEARS OF AGE - Wonder what Mom would have thought about it?
65 YEARS OF AGE - Wish I could talk it over with Mom.
The beauty of a mother is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a mother must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. The beauty of a mother is not in a facial mole, but true beauty is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a mother with passing years only grows!
In honor of my own mother who will be celebrating her 72nd birthday on October 21. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMA!

Hon,
Wow! What can I say? Our children are the most blessed kids on earth, because they have YOU for their mother!

Gosh he's the smartest DAD ever because he's right!! You are the best mommy in the whole white world!! :)
And Happy Birthday Gramma!!!
That's a cute post. I like to read things that help me to know that I am doing something right as a mother. And, I'm glad to know that the beauty of a mother is not in the figure that she carries, because the figure that I am carrying right now is not too beautiful. Of course, it gets me lots of fun comments like when we went to the pumpkin patch the other day and a really nice man said to his wife, "It looks like she swallowed a pumpkin." Bless his heart. At least I'm looking festive. And, Happy Birthday Grandma Jean! She is looking good!
