“Love as powerful as your mother’s for you leaves its own mark.” -Albus Dumbledore
This God given assignment is a barrage of emotions, rewards, physicality and reflection but you’re handling it well. Even on the days where you question every little decision, reaction, conversation and thought.
You’re handling it well.
On those days where you’re feeling the guilt of needing solitude for your sanity but still love them with every fiber of your being.
You’re handling it well.
The times where the highs are super high and the lows are super low.
You’re handling it well.
The moments where your tears of frustration are unspoken prayers but your heart is calling out to God.
You’re handling it well.
The times where you’re bursting with pride and joy from witnessing them become the human beings you prayed they would be.
You’re handling it well.
The times where you feel like giving up.
You’re handling it well.
The times where they come to you for guidance, advice or affection.
You’re handling it well.
And the times where they still need you, even after all this time.
You’re. Handling. It. Well.
Happy Mother’s Day.
