Today I was a Mother in the truest sense of the word…I went on a field trip with my daughter! I even rode the bus. I even told other children to sit down and be quiet. I gave other children the “motherly eye” when they were doing things they shouldn’t…

I AM… So many thoughts fill my mind as these words are spoken. I am a daughter, a wife, a mother, a caregiver, a taxi driver, a bargain hunter, a nurse, a psychiatrist, an organizer and so much more. Happiness and fulfillment are wrapped up in all these things. Yet, I…
