To all the mothers from me to you!

Somebody said, “it takes about six weeks to get
back to normal after you’ve had a baby”
That somebody doesn’t know that once
you’re a mother, “Normal,” is history.

Somebody said, “being a mother is boring … …”
That somebody never rode in a car
driven by a teenager with a driver’s permit.

Somebody said, “if you’re a good mother, your
child will turn out good.”
That somebody thinks a child comes with
directions and a guarantee.

Somebody said, “good mothers never
raise their voices.”
That somebody never came out the back door
just in time to see her child hit a golf ball through
the neighbor’s kitchen window.

Somebody said, “you don’t need an education to be
a mother.”
That somebody never helped a fourth grader
with her math.

Somebody said, “a mother Can find all the answers
to her child-rearing questions in the books.”
That somebody never had a child stuff beans up his
nose or in his ears.

Somebody said, “you can’t love the fifth child
as much as you love the first.”
That somebody doesn’t have five children.

Somebody said, “the hardest part of being a mother
is labor and delivery.”
That somebody never watched her “baby” get on the
bus for the first day of kinder garden, or on a plane
headed for military “boot camp.”

Somebody said, “a mother can do her job with her eyes
closed and one hand tied behind her back.”
That somebody never organized four giggling
little girls to sell cookies for a brownie Troup.

Somebody said, “a mother can stop worrying
after her child gets married.”
That somebody doesn’t know that marriage adds
a new son or daughter-in-law to a mother’s heartstrings.

Somebody said, “a mother’s job is done
when her last child leaves home.”
That somebody never had grandchildren.

Somebody said, “your mother knows you love her,
so you don’t need to tell her.”
That somebody isn’t a mother.

Love Maggiemac
