WHAT IS A "MOTHER" ANYWAY????????
M = Miracle Worker!
Who else can take leftover macaroni and cheese, leftover canned tomatoes, leftover ham, leftover broccoli/green beans and turn it into a culinary delight in twenty minutes?
O = Oracle!
Who else can predict when the baby is going to get a new tooth; when the toddler is going to take his/her first step; when the teenager is in need of parental guidance?
T = Teacher!
Who else can spend months and months saying "A, B, C, D" over and over and over and over; or 2 plus 2 equals 4, about a zillion times without ever getting exasperated or losing patience?
H = Healer!
Who else can fix a boo-boo, a broken heart, a wounded ego, a flat tire on the old bike, a teddy bear whose arm has come off, that favorite "blankie" that has all but outlived its usefulness?
E = Entertainer!
Who else can be such a clown she can turn a frown into a smile; a singer able to lull a child to sleep after a bad dream; a magician who can turn a sheet and two or three kitchen chairs into a "tent"?
R = Referee!
Who else could take the place of the arbitrator at the Monday night football game, especially when two teenagers think they're in control of the "remote"?
