Mother’s Day
May 13, 2008 by songwriterparents
Mother’s Day was bitter sweet. Sweet because my adoring 7 children were so wonderful. They sang, they laughed…they lived to make me happy. Bitter… because our sweet Sarah wasn’t here. I miss her so, but I know one day I’ll see her again. She would be almost four years old now. Running right along side her brother’s and sisters…ah, what a sight I would have loved to have seen.
So I sighed alot, cried alot and smiled so much on Mother’s day. I’ve really been clinging to all the children this past week. It really is the greatest gift to be their mother. Out of all the thousands of women who want children, I was blessed enough with these… I am truly lucky.
Makes me really want to have a couple more. lol I just love the sounds that they make when they are so young. And I absolutely love to hear them say my name and giggle. It truly is a wonderful place to be… I am so thankful for God looking down and loving me through them. I love to look into their eyes and see the hope they have of things being just fine.
Little Ron got diagnosed finally with a huge hole in his eardrum. After three weeks, we will see if it healed itself, and look at what damage has occurred to his hearing. Hopefully it will not be permanantly lost. No matter what, I’m just glad he’s still talking and able to communicate. I remember the years when we couldn’t even understand him, nor he us. He is dianosed with Asperger Syndrome. He is very highfunctioning in academics, but struggles terribly with social situations that are new. I know he’s going to do great though.
Well, today is today…. and I’m just another woman looking back and enjoying the view.
peace, love and music,
Michelle
