Guest guest Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 Somebody said it takes about six weeks to get back to normal after you've had a baby...Somebody doesn't know that once you're a mother, normal is history. Somebody said you learn how to be a mother by instinct ... Somebody never took a three-year-old shopping. Somebody said being a mother is boring ... Somebody never rode in a car driven by a teenager with a driver's permit. Somebody said if you're a " good " mother, your child will " turn out good " ...Somebody thinks a child comes with directions and a guarantee. Somebody said " good " mothers never raise their voices...Somebody never came out the back door just in time to see her child hit a golf ball through the neighbor's kitchen window. Somebody said you don't need an education to be a mother...Somebody never helped a fourth grader with his math. Somebody said you couldn't love the fifth child, as much as you love the first... Somebody doesn't have five children. Somebody said a mother can find all the answers to her child-rearing questions in the books...Somebody never had a child stuff beans up his nose or in his ears. Somebody said the hardest part of being a mother is labor and delivery...Somebody never watched her " baby " get on the bus for the first day of kindergarten or on a plane headed for military " boot camp. " Somebody said a mother can do her job with her eyes closed and one hand tied behind her back...Somebody never organized seven giggling Brownies to sell cookies. Somebody said a mother can stop worrying after her child gets married...somebody doesn't know that marriage adds a new son or daughter-in-law to a mother's heartstrings. Somebody said a mother's job is done when her last child leaves home...Somebody never had grandchildren. Somebody said your mother knows you love her, so you don't need to tell her... Somebody isn't a mother. Pass this along to all the " mothers " in your life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
