Happy Mothers Day!!

Today, as I was doing my regular mothering duties on Mothers Day I thought about what I know, for a fact, about being a mother. After 6 years of being a mother I present a list of things I know to be true about motherhood.

1) The band aids that heal the cuts and scrapes of today will not heal the broken hearts of tomorrow.

2) Potty training is a reason to celebrate.

3) There is no cap on hugs and kisses.

4) You might not know the answer to every question but you can bullshit your way enough to satisfy their intrigue.

5) Children will forgive you if you have the courage to say "I'm sorry."

6) Sometimes they learn the lesson faster if they don't listen to your warning.

7) The cuteness of a naked baby is worth the occasional accident on the floor.

8) You will say "No" an infinite number of times.

9) Sometimes you need to live the moment and not worry about capturing it.

10) Dancing in the kitchen is sometimes more important than cleaning the kitchen.

Happy Mothers Day!!!
