Whispered Promises


 Momma is in the House and Saturday Night Song for Mommas
Back to Full Blog  

I love being a mom.



After the birth of my first daughter I knew that I liked this job. It was rewarding and it expressed what I saw in life through my little one's eyes.
Sarah was dimply and adorable.
She slept through the night and attracted large audiences of older people since had a bubbly personality and sang like a bird for entertainment.
We decided to have another about 4 years later, I decided I knew what I was doing.
Heck, I could write a book, and problem children, well they were problem parents. I mean truly, my baby was perfect, so it had to be something they were doing wrong.

Then I had Ashli.

Oh sweet dear Ashli.

She set me straight.
She reduced my over inflated ego and taught me that I had learned nothing.
She woke me at night until she was three and had a quirky surprising personality. She was determined, competitive and stubborn.
She found odd events to challenge me, and her little mind.
Just when I thought I would collapse with exhaustion,
I found out I was pregnant with Kayleen, Ashli was just 9 months old and walking, yes walking.

I was reduced to fear but would not show it.
Kayleen came out tiny, frail and slobbery. She had large round eyes and resembled a precious moments child. She let her sisters communicate for her and would hitch a ride on any available hip.

After a bit we fell into a flow of things and we bonded.
I made a mural for the girls' room. It said "God made us sisters, We choose to be friends."

We are close and I enjoy each one individually and have even more fun with their blended personalities.

Tomorrow I will have them with me for Mother's Day.

I am delighted.
We are ordering in Chinese food and are watching movies together.
I can't think of a better way to spend a day with them.
It won't be long when it will be difficult to be all in one place.
My oldest is 20 and the other two are 14 and 15.
They are growing up and getting wings.
They aren't perfect, but I can't be prouder.
I am a blessed Mom.

I am leaving you with these very fun songs by a comedic mom,Anita Renfroe, and the second by Madeline Kahn, both are very fitting for us moms.

Thanks Azron,
Her name is Anita Renfroe,
I have added it to the blog, I should have given her the credit due, she is really quite a fun comedian.
Thanks

That was a beautiful post for Mother's Day Whispered, but then you have a beautiful family, and obviously very unique family. We only have two daughters but both are utterly different and the needs of the first sure don't prepare you for the second.

Have a very Happpy Mother's Day and enjoy the movies and the Chinese Food!

Thanks Anexplorer,
Since there is no boys with us, my hubby is in Maryland, we are going to do the chick flick thing. Matthew encourages me to bring them here. *grins*
Thanks and I hope your wife has a good one too.

I loved the video, too funny!!! I am going to let my daughter and her stepmother watch it too. I always make the effort on Mother's Day to call her stepmother and tell her how much I appreciate her influence in my daughter's life as well.

by the way, Happy Mother's Day, my blog girlfriend. I hope you and the girls have a wonderful day!

Glad you enjoyed Bella!
Matthew has learned how to upload viseos and get them on You tube so now we are going to see a whole lot more Saturday night blog crawls.
You have a great Mother's day too, and what a sweet thing to call the step mom and thank her. That is sweet.

she spends more time out there since she lives with her Dad, so she is her mom when I can't be.

You have a wonderful Mother's Day!

I Never Had A Real Mom



I never had a real mom, but
I've had a mom that's real
In all the things that moms should do,
And all the things moms feel.

I never had a mother, but
I've had a mother's love.
I've had the kisses and the hugs
That therapists speak of.

I guess I should be crazy with
The things that I've been through.
But I've had all a kid could need
Because I have had you.

Dedicated to all blog moms! I love you with all my heart!

Very nice post. I hope you all had a great Mother's Day. I wish there was a manual for being a parent. No, they're not perfect, but they're yours. Which means they're the best they can possibly be. And can only get better.

And the next time you order Chinese, let me know. I'll take an order of won ton soup, two egg rolls (love egg rolls!), and shrimp with lobster sauce.

Oh Whisper, Sunday, June 1 will be the first time in two years I have been with my kids together in the same room. I can't wait. I've just got two, and it is impossible to get them all together with hubby's son too in the same house.

Know you enjoyed Mothers Day!

Heide Mine are'nt perfect either, but Lands, I am so proud of them, and thank God daily for them and that HE will continue to Bless them abundantly....
