My First Mother's Day, I'm Speechless *Sniff,Sniff**May 13 '00 Write an essay on this topic.Not to speechless I guess if I wrote this, hehe. With Mother's day being tomorrow I wanted to share with you about my mom and it being my first Mother's Day. Hope you enjoy it. First I want to say happy Mother's day to all the mother's out there and mommies to be. Be sure you call your mom, send her a card, give her flowers or take her out to eat. What ever you do show her how much you care. Of course I feel you should do it everyday, not just on Mother's Day. Mom I want to thank you for carrying me for 9 months, taking care of your self and me until I entered the world and into your loving, waiting arms. You held me when I cried (I was colicky) for hours on end for 2 months. You kissed my knee when I fell of my bike. You walked me to my first day of kindergarten and watched as I walked into the classroom. When I got home you were there with open arms and asked how my first day went. You listened to me when I was hurt and needed a shoulder to cry on. When I need to talk to someone I can call you on the phone and you listen to me as I "vent" about how I feel now that Jordan is crying all the time. Need the adult conversation when home all day with a baby. When you found out I was pregnant last year, you told everyone you could think of. Told everyone how happy you were about becoming a Grandma for the first time. When I had pregnancy pains a lot after 39 weeks you told me it is normal, if doctor says things are looking good don't worry. Said stress will make it harder on me and the baby. When I felt as big as a house you told me it is for the baby. I will have plenty of time to loss it afterwards. Now that I'm loosing the weight, you tell me you can see it coming off. When it came time for labor you held my hand when I had a contraction. When it came time to push you told me I can do it, Jordan will be here soon for you to hold. When I came home you helped out since I was in pain still. When I got my heart broken you listened as I cried and said I will find the right person soon. When I finally found him you were happy for me. When we wanted to get married at 19 years old, you never said we were to young and don't know what we are getting into. You told me if it is what we want you won't stand in our way. Now that we are married going on 4 1/2 years you couldn't be happier. Always told me I can do anything I put my mind to and don't listen to what others say. Told me I was beautiful, talented, independent and so much more. When I was raped 5 years ago you were there for me. Telling me it is not my fault. Let me have my now husband stay with me for a month because I was scared. Went with me to the lawyers, prosecutors and court when it came time for there sentencing. Two years later when it came for them to maybe get out, a letter was sent to me so I can have family write to the judge to keep them behind bars longer. You got family and friends to write, keeping them in even longer. Even though they have been in since 2-19-96 and got till 2020. I just hope I get out of Toledo before they get out so I don't have to worry about running into them. Now that I have a daughter I am so happy to celebrate my first Mother's day. Since my husband will be working tomorrow, it will be me and Jordan spending mommy and daughter time reading books and playing. I can't wait to have many more Mother's days with my daughter and any other kids we may have. Last year since I was pregnant around this time I got roses, a card and little white booties. My husband didn't want to me to be left out. Moms do so much for us, they nurture, teach, care, love us no matter what we do. Lets do our part on Sunday and show them how much we appreciate them not only tomorrow but everyday. I can't understand how some woman can carry a baby for 9 months only to abuse and neglect them for their whole lives. I love my daughter more then anything and will do anything to make sure she knows I love her for the rest of her life. It is hard (the toughest job we will ever have) but the rewards are worth it. That first smile, first word, that first kick in your belly, even the pain of labor is worth it when you see your baby for the first time.  |
