I write, edit, speak and enjoy everything outdoors. She emphasized no matter how old she got, she would never be to old to need me. I truly felt special. How wonderful, Shelley! Cards and letters like that from our children are my favorite gifts. Have a lovely weekend. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed. Hello, I'm Julie, an imperfect wife and mother of four.

I see that this post was written long back, but unfortunately I got to read it just today, and how emotional and teary I got reading this.
I always took my mom for granted thinking that its her duty to make me feel happy and fulfill all my needs. And now when I am mom myself, I can understand my mother much better and can now appreciate how much she did for me and how little that appeared to me then.
Another great post on mother. Mother is definitely the best gift of kids. He whoever lost his mother in childhood is the most unluckiest person in the world. Mother knows her kids best. Mother knows everything by just seeing your face. When you feel you are alone in the crowd, When you think No. I agree, and such a loss no one can replace.
Her only fault was that she spoilt us rotten. She was a very special lady and I miss her. Glad you liked the post, and yes — such posts always remind me of my Mom and for all the other mothers who are doing so well raising their kids.
However, I can never be like her — she was the real woman of substance and I still have a long way to go before I become a little like her. Thanks for your words of appreciation Sue, but I feel I lack in a lot of areas — though I try my best to get better by the day — so I would say when I write about parenting on the blog, it teaches me as it reminds me to get better too.
Nice to know about your Mom, and she surely sounds like a woman with great strength and will power. Even though she has a difficult and tough childhood, she made sure she gave all the comforts to her kids, and I guess what we might call as spoiling — was actually her love for you all. The best we can do to explain it is unconditional love. Things in your life happen, you meet a whole bunch of people, you lose a whole bunch of people, the tides of life pass but mom is always there and will always be there.
Yes indeed, people come into our lives and they leave, and life carries on. Dads are equally wonderful and it takes both the parents love, care, and attention in raising a healthy family. But, moms are and will always be moms I guess. I found your post very moving as I lost my mom about 15 years ago now and I miss her all the time. Thanks for sharing, hope you have a great day. I think when we remember them fondly and try following all that they taught us, we may be able to make them happy, wherever they are.
Nobody in this world can love you as much as a mom can. I guess being an emotional person, sometimes I do write touchy posts, especially when I miss my mom whom I lost some years back.
Yes indeed, mothers are priceless and no one can love us the way they do. I guess words sometimes fall short to capture the role, importance and difference your MOM makes your life. For mothers day, I also wrote a post on what it means to be a mother — I think you will like it. Glad you liked the post, and yes words are never really enough to express the feelings or convey all that we want to at times. Mothers are so very special in our lives and their absence or loss is something that create a void.
I read your post on mothers and it surely was wonderful, a nice tribute to all mothers. What a beautiful post!! I appreciate how you share some of the special moments that you have experienced with your mother. I can tell that she is so alive within your heart. I never had a special bond with my mother, but my children and I share a special, close bond that is extremely special to all of us.
Being a mother is a special gift that should always be cherished. It is amazing how much love and care we have within us for our children.
I am amazed every day when I see how much patience, love and compassion I can have for my girls and how much they grow and change before my eyes—true miracles! And yes, she is forever within my heart and soul — very alive. I keep reading about your closeness with your kids on your blog, which is wonderful indeed. They must be so proud of you and would cherish these memories and moments that you spend with them.
They are truly blessed to have such a loving, caring, and compassionate mother. This was a very special post. My mother passed away when I was 5 years old and I always had this void. I never realized it until I had my own children and started to give them all the things I wished I had growing up. Time will tell. This past mothers day I was on a cruise and it was amazing. But yes, all those girlish things and the love that a mother can only give must have been really missing.
I guess because you never had the things you wished for that you could share with your mom, you made sure your kids had them. Must have felt really nice to be with your family and being a mom to them on this special day. I think Mothers sacrifice so much of themselves being Mums, and they do it unconditionally, not expecting a thing in return. Glad you liked the post, and yes, mothers are always special because of all that they do and who they are.
They are always giving and sacrificing themselves for us without asking for anything in return, which is what makes them so-so special.
I guess small things matter and if you can convey your feelings towards your mother and let her know how much you value her- there can be a no better gift for her on this special day. When I lost my own a little over year and a half ago, I also realized something else about mothers. No one will toot our horn like our mothers does, will they?
That, I believe, is the power our mothers possess. They are with us always. I know how close you were to your mother and her loss must have shaken you.
Yes indeed, they are the ones who bring that smile on our face, and they are the ones who encourage, motivate, and inspire us to keep moving ahead and trying out new things. No one can really take the place of a mother or all that she does for us. But your mom would surely be proud of your achievements and the pace with which you are going ahead, had she been around.
You have her blessings for sure dear friend. I guess that though we lose our loved ones and miss their presence physically, they never leave us and are always around and with us. My wife is a great mum to our kids and I see more and more the work she puts in to help them.
I read about your parents in the earlier comments, and it was all because of the hardships your mom faced being a single parent that helped raise all of you so well, which made you what you are today. Hats-off to such courageous and giving mothers. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your experiences with everyone.
Sadly, mine was killed over 4 years ago. I think my mum found motherhood harder than I have. I have a natural motherly instinct and wanted to stay home and look after mine before they started school — which was exactly what I did. Yes indeed, mothers are special.
Sorry to hear about the loss of your mother too, though I think she would be very proud of you and the way you have brought up your kids.
I was also like you and never really ventured out to work or did anything else till my kids were big enough to take care of themselves. But I always give her presents to show how much she means to me. The ones that God have given the ability to love unconditionally. No matter who we are, we always have mother that will love and support us. For my mom, me and my sister took her out for a dinner. It may be a simple gesture, but it was nice to have a change in her daily routine.
Glad you found the post touching and powerful. Mothers are special for their unconditional love and for so much more they do. I love this post because I, like most people, believe that my Mom is very special. My Mom was a very strict disciplinarian. At the same time, we was very nurturing as well. Over the years I became to appreciate all that she taught us the older I got.
I will be spending the weekend with her and taking her to her 70th high school reunion. The last Monday of the month is also her birthday so I intend to help her celebrate them all next weekend. They love us just the same. I think you were closer to your dad in your initial years as I read on your blog, but I think after him your closeness to your mom must have increased.
And this is what mostly happens- that we are closer to one parent when we our young and later the closeness for both parents develops.
I was perhaps always close to my mom, though later the closeness for both became more — much more for my dad after my mom. Wishing her a very Happy Birthday in advance. Mothers are divine — and define us in such an all-encompassing way.
Love your post with its quotes. Miss my mom and I know you miss yours too, though I think they would be happy knowing that we think of them fondly.
