Moms,.... some good, some bad, some supportive, some not. Some try to teach you, some need to be taught themselves. Some put the children first, some take more photos of themselves and make duck lips.
My younger sister and I had a mom that sacrificed her life for us. Not in the dying sense but in the sense she had no social life. She didn't party and leave us with whoever, she took care of us. We were the victims of a drunken father who was abusive to her. He tried to be to me but like the mother she was, she protected us. I say father very loosely,... he was just a sperm donor.
She was dedicated to us. She tried to teach us about being good people, about treating others right and to be a Christian. Momma tried. My younger sister learned these lessons probably a little better than I. Mom had already taught our older sister these things and she passed those teachings on to her children. Like I said, momma tried.
We were certainly blessed to have such a loving mother. One that watched out for her baby birds. Its been 31 years since she has passed. So much has happened in that time that I wish we could share with her. She would be happy about some things, sad about others. But all in all I think she'd be pleased. Miss you mom,...
