"Mothers
Give All"
Maybe you’re a
mother, or have a mother or yor're married to a mother or were born by a mother. You were born by a mom
or how did you get here to read what I’m going to say? Dropped on a rock left in the sun to hatch-I
believe it.
Mothers are the
great common denominator of the universe. You don’t have to do anything to have
a mother. You just pop out and before
the doctor can count from 10 to 1 she’s
holding you having a big smile. There she is , hopefully, we showed up on time.
From behind the curtains,
having a baby is a hard physical and emotional experience. To prove how
forgetful mothers are, some of them have more than one baby.
Instinct, mothers
have instinct. Mothers don’t
need advice when they deliver; they’re equipped with mother instinct. It’s automatic: when you poke your tiny body, about the size
of a banana squash, wailing blue faced and get dropped on the ground or handed
into their arms. The code came to
mothers one generation after another, from their moms, grandmas, great-grandmas
and so on and on.
Mothers have
learned well and are ready, because you get born not knowing crap, and I’m not talking
diapers here. Diapers are in the next installment.
