MOTHERS FIRST
Mothers
are one of the best creations of God. She has amazing powers. She can multitask
without complaining. She cares for everyone without any demands. Read here and
marvel at the wonder called -Mother.
By the time the Lord made mothers, he was into his Sixth day of working overtime. An Angel appeared and said, "Why are you spending so much time on this one?"
By the time the Lord made mothers, he was into his Sixth day of working overtime. An Angel appeared and said, "Why are you spending so much time on this one?"
And
the Lord answered and said, "Have you seen the special sheet on her? She
has to be completely washable, but not plastic, have 200 movable parts, all
replaceable, run on black coffee and leftovers, have a lap that can hold three
children at one time and that disappears when she stands up, have a kiss that
can cure anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart, and have six pairs of
hands."
The
Angel was astounded at the requirements for this one. "Six
pairs of hands! No Way!" said the Angel.
The
Lord replied, "Oh, it's not the hands that are the problem. It's the three
pairs of eyes that mothers must have!"
"And
that's just on the standard model?" The Angel asked.
The
Lord nodded in agreement. "Yes, one pair of eyes is to see through the
closed door as she asks her children what they are doing even though she
already knows. Another pair in the back of her head is to see what she needs to
know even though no one thinks she can. And the third pair is here in the front
of her head. They are for looking at an errant child and saying that she
understands and loves him or her without even saying a single word."
But
I can't!" The Lord protested, "I am so close to finishing this
creation that is so close to my own heart. She already heals herself when she
is sick AND can feed a family of six on a pound of rice and can get a two year
old to stand in the shower."
The
Angel moved closer and touched the woman, "But you have made her so
soft, Lord".
"She
is soft", Lord agreed, "but I have also made her tough. You have no
idea what she can endure or accomplish."
"Will
she be able to think?" asked the Angel.
The
Lord replied, "Not only will she be able to think, she will be able to
reason and negotiate."
The
Angel then noticed something and reached out and touched the woman's
cheek. "Oops, it looks like you have a leak with this model. I told you
that you were trying to put too much into this one."
"That's
not a leak." The Lord objected. "That's a tear!"
"What's
the tear for?" the Angel asked.
The
Lord said, "The tear is her way of expressing her joy, her sorrow, her
pain, her disappointment, her loneliness, her grief, and her pride."
They have strengths that amaze men. They carry children, they
carry hardships, and they carry burdens, but they hold happiness, love and joy.
They smile when they want to scream. They sing when they want to cry. They cry
when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous. They fight for what they
believe in. They stand up for injustice. They don't take "no" for an
answer when they believe there is a better solution. They go without new
shoes so their children can have them. They go to the doctor with a frightened
friend. They love unconditionally. They cry when their children excel and cheer
when their loved ones get awards. They are happy when they hear about a birth
or a new marriage. They are strong when they think there is no strength left.
They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart. Mothers come
in all sizes, in all colors and shapes. They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail
you to show how much they care about you. The heart of a mother is
what makes the world spin!Mothers do more than just give birth. They bring
joy and hope. They give compassion and ideals. They give
moral support to their family and friends.Mothers have a lot to say and a lot to give.
