Happy Mother's Day

 

Happy Mother's Day: Woman pregnant with 18th child

How exciting to be expecting your 18th child. I imagine their home life is never dull.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mums out there.

I love being a Mother. It is such a privilege. Is there any other career that can compare with motherhood?

These are a few of my favourite things:

Little voices greeting me in the morning.

Smiling faces.

Colourful drawings that hang on my fridge.

A tiny voice telling me she “loves me so much.”

Friendly chats with my older girls.

Boys who love to show me their ‘huge’ muscles.

Little feet touching my legs in the middle of the night.

I am so spoiled. So far, today, I have had a beautiful cooked breakfast, and lots of lovely presents. A gourmet dinner will top it off tonight. I will try to post some photos soon.

Until then, enjoy every moment you have with your children. They are such precious gifts.

May. 23, 2008 - blessed to be a mother

Here! Here! My youngsters are now all adults and I'm so glad we had all those homeschooling years... As a child and a daughter Mother's Day isn't something I celebrated or even thought much about. Homeschooling helped me to find another, better way of defining and living 'family' and I continue to reap the blessings and joy years after we officially finished homeschooling.

cheers

Hi Beverley,

Thanks for such an encouraging comment. In our home, everyday is Mother's Day. I receive pictures as gifts, and just today, my 8 year old made me a surprise breakfast of porridge.
Blessings,
Amanda
