Sometimes Mom amazes even me

8/31/2011

 
    I know that you all are always saying how great my Mom is but to me she is just Mom.  She is who she is.  She does the things she does because of the love in her heart.  She always has and always will.  To tell the truth though sometimes even I don't know how she does it.  This morning with everything else that has been lost, the washer stops.  Just stops.  No draining, no spinning, Just stops.  I know Mom and Dad have it tight.  We are a small farm and with the price of feed and the round bales we have to buy this year It is getting even tighter.  Add to that the shed that was thought to be insured, not being covered by insurance and Things are getting really tight.  Today for the first time I noticed that when Mom was telling me and Dad that it will all work out and that God has a plan she still has a bit of worry on her face.  Maybe I am getting older or maybe I never really looked at her while she comforted me and Dad before.  Somehow I wonder if she has to see God's work too, just like me and Dad, to finally stop worrying about things.  I used to say she never lets on but now I think I just didn't notice it in her face.  Then again Maybe I am just growing up and understanding more just how much Mom and Dad give to me by giving me this life we have.  Just a thought ....
