Reasons to Love Mom
Let me discuss with you the top 3 reasons to love mom. I hope everyone had a great Mother’s day.
I remember watching the Cosby episode in which Bill Cosby said, “I brought you into this world and I can take you out.”
I remember my family joking around with this quote when we were younger. I am sure your family has fun, similar sayings too.
I know not everyone has a mother, let alone what they would describe as a good relationship with one. Either way, the reason you are breathing and enjoying life is because of your mother. For that, be thankful.
Life can get you down many times, but for me my mom was always there. She has also been around for the fun times.
1. She taught one, first, how to be a girl.
I have discussed in other blogs how my siblings and I did not grow up in the richest family, however I know one thing for sure. I know how to get three different outfits from one shirt. My mom has always had good taste in clothes, but could not always afford to buy them. She taught me how to be a smart girl when I shipped and how to find one shirt that matched two different pairs of pants and a jacket to go over it or a matching shirt. That would help me get my monies worth out of the one shirt.
She also taught me how to use jewelry to dress up a shirt inexpensively. I know these are life hacks I will be passing on to my daughter as well.
2. She taught me how to attract the right guy.
Instead of lecturing or just making it a list of do’s and don’ts, my mom taught me how to pull the positive character and personality traits out of myself and find places to volunteer in life. She taught me how to use my gifts to help others. When we take the focus off ourselves (or our need to be loved or have a boyfriend) “then the right person will come into our lives.” (she always said). She was so right. I am married to him today (Mark).
3. She taught me how to cook.
I almost laughed at that sentence myself. Really, my mom has never liked cooking because she has said, “It takes so long to cook, then is eaten in a few minutes.” I am sure some of you can relate.
Personally, I have a similar mentality, however on holidays my mom always gets out her recipe book and we had fun cooking together my Grandmother’s recipes, from Texas (where my mom grew up). Neither one of us may like to cook, however the bonding time while we do is irreplaceable. There are always many laughs, stories, and memories being shared while we cook together. That is the part of cooking we enjoy.
So how has your mom influenced your life? Again, I know I will be passing at least these top 3 reasons to love mom on to my future children. It is a great legacy from my mom and her mom that will be treasured forever.
Have your mom write down her favorite recipes and lessons from life. Then, put them in a Baby Time Capsule to pass on to your child. You can get a Baby Time Capsule here.
