When your a mommy

When your a Mommy you expect certain things, dependent of the sex of your child or children.

If it's a girl, you expect mood swings, shopping, secrets, and teaching her all the normal girly things. You pray she becomes a strong, God fearing woman, and that she finds a God fearing man to marry. You dream of wedding dress shopping, planning that wedding and then watching her become a Mommy to her children. Praying and hoping for the peace, health and well being of her family.

When she shares her life with you, the joy you feel is unmeasurable. Holding her first born child is heavenly! Knowing your legacy continues and your own little girl is raising our future generation is simply amazing. You want them to be happy and healthy.

When your the Mommy of a boy it completely different. Just as they are as different in personalities, likes and needs, your desires, plans and wants for a boy are very different.

You want him to be self sufficient, reliable, strong, kind and good and you wish he to is a God fearing man who finds a loyal, strong, kind God fearing woman to share his life with. You want to watch him be a daddy. To mold his children and provide for his family. You want him to be the head of his household with dignity & respect.

You teach him how to take care of himself, how to cook, clean, do his own laundry, but, your hope is that he becomes a man of integrity. No matter what age. Your hope is that God is always with him and that he knows his Mom will always be his biggest fan, loudest critic and first love.

But most of all you hope you live a long life. The kind that allows you to watch your babies grow, and yes, sometimes stumble, so they can dust themselves off and get back up. Your hard work as a Mother can be tough, tedious and at time trying, but, your handiwork may be witness for many, many years, if your lucky. At least that's how I see it.
