Life itself is a crazy rollercoaster, and then parenthood begins. Still a rollercoaster, just much more intense, more loops, higher peeks, lower dips and all consuming.

Queen Sue is approaching her 24th Mothers Day. The challenges many, the ride long, however I know, as a mother she is golden. Now a Grandmother the course of nature has not wavered. 

The best tip for “new” mothers, don’t wish the years away.

…Can’t wait until she holds her own bottle, can’t wait until she crawls, can’t wait until she walks, or says her first words…

"A mother's arms are made of tenderness and children sleep soundly in them." Victor Hugo

•        A Mother’s kiss is like a cup of hot chocolate on a cold winter night.
•        Mother has not killed dad.
•        Who but a Mother can heal a broken heart with a stack of oatmeal raisin cookies?
•        A Mother puts aside her own pain to comfort yours.
•        A Mother can go days without sleep.
•        A Mother can ease your crying eyes at one in the morning, again at three in the morning and go to work at seven in the morning.
•        No matter the distance, the sound of a Mother’s voice is as if she is right next to you.
•        A Mother can heal anything with a kiss and a band-aid.
•        A Mother will take you to the emergency room at four in the morning and comfort you the whole way.
•        A Mother will stand aside, though it pains her dearly, let you do it your way, and pick up the pieces when it falls apart.
