Mother's Day

I was asked on Mother's Day, what I liked best about being a Mom. I like everything about it. I always wanted to be a Mom. It is the only thing I ever wanted to do. I mothered my baby sister. When I was in junior high school and had to take those dumb occupation tests, I was upset that Mother was not listed as an option. I chose secretary. Those skills are needed for Mothering as well. Actually, there isn't a course that can be taken that can't be applied in Mothering.
I finally settled on architecture. I thought that I could design people's house at home and still be with my kids. I made it through one year and then became pregnant and stopped to be home with my baby.
When my babies were little, I didn't want to put them down. They would sleep in my front pack or on my chest. I never used a baby seat. I held my babies. I even held my babies when I was driving if they were fussy (it wasn't illegal then and my car didn't even have seat belts).
I eventually ended up in the health care field. There is a lot of mothering in health care. I mother my own kids as well as everybody elses. They call me the baby whisperer.
