Easter Reminded Me of the Miracles That Are My Children

Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! Things have been busy. I am still a working mom of three, working full time who is trying to make a difference. I do a lot of things and try to be present so that I can learn from them. I share them on this blog so that we can learn together. Below are some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world. Below is a tale of my road to becoming the mother of three. It was a road filled with joys and disappointments. However, I wouldn't giving nothing for my journey now. Here's to embracing every step of the journey, even the painful ones, and embracing the lessons learned along the way.

I am a Mother...

Mom at Virginia Beach

Being a mother has been my greatest honor, biggest privilege, and hardest job. I am humbled to be in a club that includes great women like my own mother, grandmother and ancestors. I am their daughter and I am here, humbly trying to make them proud.

                                                                      I am a Mother...

I am a milk machine who nourishes

A scheduler who flourishes

A counselor who listens

Who strives to make them glisten

 

I am a cook who makes tasty meals

An empath with all of the feels

A teacher who helps them do their best

Who strives to help them pass the test

 

I am a dreamer who sees what my kids can be

A light who helps them see

A warrior who fights to keep them safe

Who strives to show them the way

 

I am a hugger who embraces

A kisser who covers their little faces

A disciplinarian who gives them what they need

Who strives to help them succeed

 

Simply put, I am a mother who loves

A humble woman who gets strength from above

A indefatigable worker who cooks and cleans

A grateful heart who appreciate what all this means
