I thought some of you might enjoy this and wanted to share it for Mother's Day -
SOMEBODY SAID...............
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 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 it is OK to take your anger out on your
mother she will understand.
Somebody needs to understand that mother will not live
forever and should not have to understand.
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.
Somebody said you don't need to visit your mother more
than once a year, she knows you still love her and
understand why. Somebody never looked into the eyes of
that mother to her soul.
Pass this along to all the "Mothers", Children and
"Grandmothers" in your life.
