 HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.  Somebody said that a child is carried in its mother's womb for nine months. Somebody does not know that a child is carried in its mother's heart  forever.                                                                              Somebody said it takes about six weeks to get back to normal after you've had a  baby. Somebody doesn't know that once you're a mother, normal is history.                                                                                   Somebody said you learn how to be a mother by instinct.                   Somebody never took a three-year-old shopping.                                                                                                         Somebody said being a mother is boring.                                   Somebody never rode in a car driven by a teenager with a driver's permit.                                                                               Somebody said if you're a "good" mother, your child will "turn out good."  Somebody mistakenly thinks a child comes with directions and a guarantee.                                                                                Somebody said "good" mothers never raise their voices.                      Somebody never came out the back door just in time to see her child hit a golf ball through the neighbor's kitchen window.                                                                                 Somebody said you don't need an education to be a mother.                   Somebody never helped a fourth grader with his math.                                                                                                     Somebody said you can't love the fifth child as much as you love the first.    Somebody doesn't have five children.                                                                                                                     Somebody said a mother can find all the answers to her child-rearing questions in the books.   Somebody never had a child stuff beans up his nose.                                                                                                      Somebody said the hardest part of being a mother is labor and  delivery.    Somebody never watched her "baby" get on the bus for the first day of kindergarten.                                                                                 Somebody said a mother can do her job with her eyes closed and one hand tied behind her back.   Somebody never organized seven giggling Brownies to sell  cookies.                                                                                       Somebody said a mother can stop worrying after her child gets married.     Somebody doesn't know that marriage adds a new son or daughter-in-law to a mother's  heartstrings.                                                                                                                                 Somebody said a mother's job is done when her last child leaves  home.     Somebody never had grandchildren.                                                                                                                        Somebody said your mother knows you love her, so you don't need to tell her.   Somebody isn't a mother.                                                                                                                                                                                                              Pass this along to all the "Mothers" and "Grandmothers" in your  life!     Author Unknown   |
