• You sat for hours smiling at your newborn’s face
• Your house smelled like a combination of diapers and spit up
• The best conversation you ever had involved cooing
• It was celebration time when there was pee pee in the potty
• Tears fell after saying goodbye to your child on the school bus on their first day of school
• Your child gave you their first mother’s day gift of a clay handprint
• Mother’s Day meant all the kids waking you up by jumping on your bed and presenting you with homemade gifts and flowers from outside
• You spent every weeknight and Saturdays cheering them on at softball games and other activities

You took family portraits like this together

• Getting your little ballerinas ready for their dance recital and smiling proudly in the audience
• You stayed up all night and early morning while your husband snored ,anxiously waiting for your daughter  to return safely  home to you after prom
• Saying goodbye  as you moved your child into college meant sobbing while trying to drive home
• You listened to your daughter say,”I do” and start her new life away from you 

   

• Seeing you newborn grandbabies lying on your daughter’s stomach made you realize how good life was
• Even though the kids are gone and the house seems empty there will always be the memories of remember when.

Happy Mother’s Day to all.
