Mothers are worth the HERO title...

It is sad how I did not learn to really appreciate my mother until I had my own. I know that at times they can get a little pestering and annoying but regardless of all of our flaws we all love our mothers. I know my mother has always pushed me harder and expected more from me because I am the oldest but I need some slack cut off every once in a while. It's funny because although I am the oldest help her the most and have a child she'll still wake me up first. I am 23 but my sister is 21 and my brothers are 15, they can do just the same or even faster. Because as soon as the baby wakes I must tend to his needs but I really can't at times because of it. I will but you know those dirty looks you can get at times just are too much.

I know it's mother's day; I love my mother because she was the only that understood what I was going through pregnancy and man that pain... that pain. The day my son was born that was the day I appreciated womanhood as a whole. I  had sympathy for those ladies with one kid or more... and those that had the ability to have more and indure that pain, wow! My heroes... My grandmother last time( from my daddy's side) was telling me Happy Mother's Day and I told her well to you too grandma. But, she was like wow it's amazing how when you have the first you tell yourself that one is enough. And it's true because I still keep telling my self that. Since my son was born I have a weaker lower back even to this day and it's almost 3 years... My grandma told me yeah, after so many kids you just get weak and fragile. She is about to have her 60th wedding anniversary in January. She had 16 children, 5 miscarriages and of those 16 that were born many passed at the  young ages of 2-3... only 11 Survive now... All my uncles and Aunts... Guadalupe, Ramon, Angel, Maria, Jesus, Cesario (dad), Rosa, Librada, Alonso, Rodolfo, Angelica... My grandmother wow.... Talk about the courage to have so many although sadly a few passed and one of fright when my grandfather was struck by lighting. Luckily he survived. It was before my dad was in so earlier than 1962... I am lucky to still have all of those aunts and uncles alive and fortunate to have both my grandmothers. My mom's mom, grandma Felix she had 6 but 6 is enough too... Gregoria (mom), Polonia, Petra, Teresa, Jesus, and Sidronia... For those 2 women I mean imagine the hardship of only having the help of another lady. No hospitals or any medication.  My mom's mom is going to be 75 next month... Amazing ladies... love them to death. Like I said... Mothers are worth the title HERO! We don't know or understand the pain they go through for us to survive and become better people. They cry tears of blood when we get in trouble or even hurt or selves... Mothers the best kind of loving person we can all have in this world.

Hey, They may get on our nerves at times BUT they do it to protects us from ourselves...
