Today I reflect on motherhood. I AM THE MOTHER OF 3
BEAUTIFUL, AUTHENTIC, COMPASSIONATE, SMART, NON-JUDGMENTAL, LOVING BOYS! Out of
all the things I have done and experienced in my life.. none compare to what I
see and have felt with my boys; therefore, I can be peaceful and happy.
My baby Tandin turns 25 today. I am proud of him, and I am equally
proud of T.J. and Chase. These, now men, no longer babies, have risen to
exceptional heights, with no credit to me. Each one has strengths and
weaknesses. They are human, they fall down, they make mistakes, and what’s most
important is they get up, they show up and they love unconditionally. Each one of my boys is exceptionally smart and successful in their careers, but it is not what they do that makes them, it is who they are deep down, and they are gems.
We are all dog lovers, if you’re a dog lover you get it,
there is nothing comparable to the unconditional love of a devoted dog. We have
4 dogs in our family, Ducati, Cayenne, Pac and Zion; three bulldogs and my
devoted and faithful Boston, Zion. We still miss our Dozer and Roxee, a Bulldog
and Boston lost in T.J.s house fire in 2011, they were a pair, united in life and
death.
This post is ultimately about motherhood. I have been
blessed beyond to have these 3 boys that are loving, compassionate,
understanding, beautiful inside and out, despite what has been passed down from
their Momma. Whatever I have done in life, my greatest satisfaction, pride and
heart comes from giving birth to these 3 great men. Yes, they are now men..and
Chase and Lauren will be making me a Grandma this coming July. Life is sweet when you are blessed with boys!
