A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

on
As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow. (As an Amazon associate, I am compensated for qualifying purchases.)

I am a Mother...

on
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
