To You I’m Just A Mom But To Them, I’m Everything
To the rest of the world,
You may be 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳,
But to your children, you are their entire world.
You make chicken noodle soup and rub your children’s backs when they’re sick…
Like a nurse.
You let your children hop into bed with you when they have a nightmare
And stand up to the monsters under their beds…
Like An Activist
You encourage your children to try again,
Help them with homework,
And explain right from wrong…
Like a teacher.
After a hard day, you listen to your children and help them cool down…like a therapist.
You think of activities for your children, sing and dance with them,
And play make-believe…
Like an entertainer.
You Keep Food on Their Table
And know how to prepare meals just how your kids like them…
Like a chef.
You clean up toys,
Vacuum crumbs,
Make beds,
Do loads of laundry,
Wipe faces,
And do dishes…
Like a cleaning service.
You have so many jobs,
The list could go on and on.
And on top of that…
You Build a Home Filled With So Much Love
So, to the rest of the world,
You may be 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳,
But to your children, you are their entire world.
And that’s the most important and hardest job there is.
