Happy Mother’s Day

To all the wonderful moms in my life Happy Mother’s Day. Whether a human child, a hairy pet child or a hairy human child as mothers of teenage boys can attest to. Remember without the moms of this world it would become a cesspool of dirty laundry and dishes because there would be no one to pick up after everyone else! 😂😂😂💜💜💜

Mom’s Embrace

I watched you walk away

A split image

No more than that

A view of…..

The child you were

The boy you are

The teenager you will be

To the man you become.

In that moment

My heart swelled

With love

With motherly pride

And I realized

The fights we have

The life we have

It is one unique to us

One we have crafted

Together.

I may not be a proper mom

I don’t bake

I use curse words

(Not naive…..

You have heard them before)

I drink

But I am your mother

And you make me perfect.

Son

From the day you were born

To the day that I die

(And beyond….

Like that isn’t creepy)

I vowed to love you

I swore to protect you

To always be your touchstone.

I will always be here

Never worry about that

Even in anger

Know that you can always come

And shelter in mom’s embrace.
