Motherly Wisdom #26: Mom loves you more than money

I can share this now, because it is AFTER CHRISTMAS, and a lot of you have received your gifts or received nothing.

As a parent, WE LOVE YOU MORE THAN MONEY. Your lives mean more to us than what you can buy us. Gifts are great, but they are an added addition to what we already have in you, and that is LOVE, RESPECT, TRUST. (please go back and review Motherly Wisdom 24)

Gifts can be stolen and replaced, but life cannot be. Let me help some of you mothers with a little transparency here: MY KIDS AREN'T PERFECT EITHER, but I love them just the same. I MIGHT be a little disappointed in the lives they have chosen to live, but ITS THERE LIFE AND THEY ARE GROWN.

Whew..now that that's over.

Mom loves you more than money. Money is good to have, but not where i takes over your life. Let me tell you that on some point, when you have your own kids, you will realize you can't give them everything that you want to, but you can share with them LOVE......

SO #CATCHTHIS: DON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT WHAT MAMA ISNT' DOING, WHEN SHE'S STILL LOVING YOU!

Motherly Wisdom #1: Stay at Home

Sometimes you need to just stay at home with your kids. Truly! It may be the Christmas season, and you want to go visit others, but sometimes you need to stay at home with your own children. 

They need you to focus on them sometimes, instead of others. Those of us that go from house to house all the time, then we do it excessively around Thanksgiving and Christmas, are the ones that want to be seen. 

It is truly time out for WORRYING ABOUT PEOPLE; stay home from time to time. Take care of your house because it is absolutely necessary. At some point, you have to decide that you are not a teenager and you can't get around as much as you would like. At some point you have to grow up.

Now, I'm really reflecting on the people that are somewhere every weekend, then on Christmas they are in MORE PLACES. Sit down. Stay at home. Let your children get to know you and you them. 


Home is where the heart is; if you aren't home, neither is your HEART!

Oh, It's Christmas Time: For the Moms

Good morning Ladies! 

It has been quite a while, but we're determined to get through and press through! 

It has come to my attention that young adults are doing their best to remember their parents by the gifts they purchase. They feel that because its Christmas times, and moms like gifts, that its a great substitute for all the drama they caused all year. 

I don't think that was the real intent on why Jesus was born, but just flow with me here: THE CHILDREN DON'T HAVE THAT CONCEPT JUST RIGHT. It's Christmas time??

I"m still a young mom, even at 43, but I have noticed that my children take a different spin on things, than we did at their age. It is gift giving time, if you are into the commercialism, but the gifts, don't take away from the character and attitude of all year. I have 4 children (3 of my own, and one blended), and each one has their own attitude. Whether loving or emotional, angry or disrespectful, each child still receives love from their parents. (Me and my husband) 

It all goes in what they SAW as they were being raised. 

I think most of feel like, when you teach, you're telling, but as I get older, I see what I taught was what was seen. I'm thankful for being able to take care of them throughout their young lives, but I regret some choices I made that may have left a bad taste in their mouths. Oh yes, ITS CHRISTMAS TIME. 

For years, we didn't have a great Christmas, because of what was going on all year. Time has proven that the effects of that are hidden in our family. For you, if you see or feel the same, realize the error of ALL OF YOUR WAYS, and re-teach the things that are important. Moms, we are the cuddlers, the counselors, the teachers, the menders, etc in the lives of our children. Take some time right now to think over their lives, renew your commitment to them, and bring FAMILY BACK. 

Why? It's CHRISTMAS TIME!
