The Mother

A mother is

excited

anxious

filled with joy

fraught with anxiety

distracted

busy

helpful

organized

a chaser of little people

an encouragement to big people

a butcher

a baker

even sometimes a candlestick maker

yet

each day

God gives her grace

God speaks love to her heart

God tells her to keep running the race

and she falls asleep

knowing that tomorrow

she will do it all again

because

she loves being a Mother

and she wouldn't trade her job for any other in the world!
