I am a mother! I am a mother!

Late tonight I just finished the book I was reading " I am a mother" by Jane Clayson Johnson. My friend Amy let me borrow it. I loved this book, it was so uplifting to read. She quotes alot of scipture and their are alot of good stories in it. One of my favorite quotes is in their...I will share it with you.
"Cleaning and scrubbing can wait for tommarrow, For babies grow up, I've learned, to my sorrow. So quiet down, cobwebs, Dust go to sleep. I'm rocking my baby, and babies don't keep" Author unknown
In my own reflections of being a Mother I have really tired to spend good quality time with each of my boys. When I hear that quote it just reminds me of what is most important. I daily tell my boys how much I love them. I remember my own mother growing up. My Mom was such a loving mother who made me feel safe and loved espeacially when times were hard. Thank you Mom! I miss you. I love being a mom, it's rewarding, challenging, fun and exciting! I can't think of a better full time job.
