What is a Mother
I can only gage this by remembering my own Mother.
As a mother myself i dont know the feeling unless i can count the children i raised.I raised my nieces and nephew as my own.I was Mama, Granny and friend to all 6 of them.I was not perfect except in love.I love them all with alll my heart.I was taxie driver , laundress and cook to them all as there parents worked.I was Mama to the ones whose Mothers had left them and Granny to the ones that needed a Granny.
I guess i was closer to Joshua and BJ but they needed me most for so long.You see my sister mama never learned how to be a Mama.But i took up the place so she was in hog heaven letting me do it.She was my Mother not my Mama. My Granny though i didnt know it was my Mama.not my granny As i was born from there daughters messed up right? No we were a normal.Finding that out was hard for me.But ive learned to deal with it.
A mother like Jesus ; loves at all time’s! Also stands ready to be a teacher and leader to there children.I taught my little ones to love and forgive and to know what respect was.I instilled love and respect into a child and reared into the man what God would have me to. So i thank God the Man Joshua will remember to do always the right thing.
But ive never been a mother inlaw but if i had i would hope for the love to spill over into the relationship! But it hasnt and i dont know what ive done to deserve such disrespect from Desi.I wish Mama was here to help me with this.
I think the problem is Desi never had her Mother with her and only had her older brother.And he let her do as she wanted.So Desi never knew what it was like to have a Mother.This is not Desi’s fault.I plan to try to do better and wait for Desi to come around.I will love her no matter how hard she trys to make it.I didnt say agree , but ill disagree withen myself and not out spoken lol.I think when rebellion walkes in , Mothers put there foot out lol. But never does a Mother stop loving and showing that love.Even in the worst of times.That i learned from my Mama !
I shared my thoughts today , exceptance not needed or required.
As always love from the …. Heart of Fancy

i have helped raise my brother and sisters. And my mom friend’s kids… and to this day… Bradley when he sees me call me mamma instead of his own mother…i must have done something right…. lol
Beautiful.
have a nice weekend.
Honey I feel for you. I truly wish I could make things better for you. Just wait Desi will come around. They always do. My DIL is the same way. And I think it was because she grew up with out a mom. She never knew what it wasa like to be close to family. She and Chris are together 8 years and she is now finally starting to talk to me. Just keep praying, I promise eventually she will come around.
sorry bout all that, hopefully things will all work out in the end. keep a candle burning for him, he’s bound to come around sometime…..
have a good weekend, or try to enjoy whats left of it.
