The Creation of Mothers

By the time the Lord made mothers, He was into the sixth day working overtime.  An Angel  appeared and said “Why are you spending so much  time on this one?”And the Lord answered and  said, “Have you read the spec sheet on her? She has to be completely washable, but not elastic; have 200 movable parts, all replaceable; run on black coffee and leftovers; have a lap that can hold three children at one time and that disappears when she stands up; have a kiss that can cure anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart; and have six pairs of hands.”The Angel was astounded at the requirements for this one. “Six pairs of hands! No way!”  said the Angel.

The Lord replied, “Oh, it’s not the hands that are the problem.  It’s the three pairs of eyes that mothers must have!”

“And that’s on the standard model?” the Angel asked.

The Lord nodded in agreement, “Yep, one pair of eyes are to see through the closed door as she asks her children what they are doing even though she already knows. Another pair in the back of her head are to see what she needs to know even though no one thinks she can. And the third pair are here in the front of her head.  They are for looking at an errant child and saying that she understands and loves him or her without even saying a single word.”

The Angel tried to stop the Lord  “This is too much work for one day. Wait until tomorrow to finish.”

“But I can’t!” The Lord protested, “I am so close to finishing this creation that is so close to my own heart. She already heals herself  when she is sick and can feed a family of six on a pound of hamburger and can get a nine year old to stand in the shower.”

The Angel moved closer and touched the woman, “But you have made her so soft, Lord.”

“She is soft,” the Lord agreed, “but I have also made her tough. You have no idea what she can endure or accomplish.”

“Will she be able to think?” asked the Angel.

The Lord replied, “Not only will she be able to think, she will be able to reason, and negotiate.”

The Angel then noticed something and reached out and touched the woman’s cheek. “Oops, it looks like You have a leak with this model. I told You that You were trying to put too much into  this one.”

“That’s not a leak.” the Lord objected.  “That’s a tear!”

“What’s the tear for?” the Angel asked.

The Lord said, “The tear is her way of expressing her joy, her sorrow, her disappointment, her pain, her loneliness, her grief, and her pride.”

The Angel was impressed.  “You are a genius, Lord.  You thought of everything for this one.  You even created the tear!”

The Lord looked at the Angel and smiled and said, “I’m afraid you are wrong again.  I created the woman, but she created the tear!”

Feb has been a great start for me. I have worked some very hard and long hours. And it paided off for me. Today I am kinda just messing around, checking in with some friends that I follow, and trying to relax and just enjoy the moments as they come. I’m hoping that or I guess I should say that I feel like I’m finally breaking away at the wall that has been holding me back. Rather it was from being scared of what I knew I was capable of doing, or scared that I just might win.. It’s been a few years since I started feeling this wall around me.. Not knowing how to break it down.. I am finding I can break it, by one brick at a time.. So far it has been working.

My mother has been doing great, we received great news on her blood work this past Dec.. it was a wonderful gift.. The gift of life.. Something magical changed in me this last Christmas.. It was understanding that life took on a whole new meaning to me, as I drove to meet my family as we awaited to hear te results.. It was only after getting the happy news tat i could admit that I was scared to death to hear the results.. After that day, Things changed.. And I am so glad..

My four daughter’s are all doing well, and thier familes as well. Jan was kind of a challenge for me, but I met each obstical head one, and turned eye’s to the next day. Now I finally feel like the wheels are turning, and I enjoy looking forward to each day as it comes.

It has been pretty cold here in Utah, and I am really looking forward to Spring.. Wish it was today.. I really miss the sunshine, and the warmth that it brings. It will soon be Valentines, and so I need to be thinking what I am going to be giving the special someone in my life.

Happy Friday… Jules

Happy 4 years old my little Conner. It was wonderful to be with my daughter’s and family. Its hard to believe that my grandchildren are growing up so fast. Mom just had her last Chemo treatment this past Monday. It felt  so good walking out of there this time.I pray with all my might that we never had to ever go back there again. Although it is an amazing place, and I know they work as many miracles as they possibly can…

After watching my Mother go through two Chemo treatments so far, I can clearly see a change come over her, my Father, and our entire family. I admire her so much, and her courage brings me to my knee’s. I have found myself looking at my own life in a whole different manner. I have become more aware of the things that really do matter in life, and the trivial things that I know are better left to be put aside. Being a part of this new Journey she has started, has also become a new journey for myself. Some times you just have to keep on going and never look back. Believe in your self, your dreams and desires, and never lose hope for tomorrow…

Dream Big

If there were ever a time to dare, to make a difference, to embark on something worth doing, it is now. Not for any grand cause, necessarily— but for something that tugs at your heart, something that’s your aspiration, something that’s your dream. You owe it to yourself to make your days here count. Have fun. Dig deep. Stretch.

Know, though, that things worth doing seldom come easy. There will be good days. And there will be bad days. There will be times when you want to turn around, pack it up, and call it quits. Those times tell you that you are pushing yourself, that you are not afraid to learn by trying.

Persist.

Because with an idea, determination, and the right tools, you can do great things.

Let your instincts, your intellect, and your heart guide you.

Trust.

Believe in the incredible power of the human mind. Of doing something that makes a difference. Of working hard. Of laughing and hoping. Of lazy afternoons. Of lasting friends. Of all the things that will cross your path this year.

The start of something new brings the hope of something great. Anything is possible. There is only one you.

And you will pass this way only once.

Do it right.
