If The Truth Be Told !

                                                               When it comes to motherhood , you look at how a mother controls things . Not being a mother , I can talk about this solely from an outside point of view . And this is my understanding on how wonderful they can be . Not from my own experience I need add , but from a fathers perspective watching and experiencing the power of motherhood .
                                                              I always had a narrow minded view of that all encompassing role called mother . I never truly experienced the power of it until I got married and had children of my own . But I can only say this now being somewhat older and I hope a little wiser than I was then . You see rearing children is a full time job , both for mothers and for fathers . You miss out sometimes on the pleasures they can bring you because you are in Alpha mode . You have to teach , and point your children in the direction you hope will benefit them when they get older , and that is your job , that is your reason for being .
                                                              Jump forward many years to a time when all of your parenting , mostly , has been done , hopefully .

You then have the time to look back at your highs and less interestingly , your lows with regard to your parenting skills . Its fair to say that you concentrate on your achievements as a parent rather than your failures .And throughout all of this you are made aware of the woman beside you , who through thick and thin is there for anyone who bothers to ask .
                                                             She will defy all the norms , and astound you with simplicity . A problem you have created in your head will be rendered meaningless in a wave of her hand . You see she understands you and she understands how to handle you , without you even noticing .You see she is not just a mother to her children , she is a mother to you also . Not something that is admissible in a court room , but if the truth be told , that's exactly how it is  .
                                                             The one thing in life you don't want to have as a child is any sort of serious confrontation with her .Because before you have even begun , you have Lost . You will argue the rights and wrongs with her , but in the end its pointless . That doesn't mean to say that you don't have something to argue about , no , you probably have . But confrontation is not going to do it for you , asking her advice is a more subtle form of raising a subject that is maybe a little sensitive .
                                                            You see mother's need to know everything , the ins and the outs , it what keeps them involved . They need to be involved , and have a little influence if called upon .

                                                            This is just me being maybe a little reflective , but where there is calm , a mother will always be . Where there is doubt , a mother will always see the positive side . My advice to anyone who cares to listen , is grab that woman you call mother , and heap upon her everything you can possibly give . Though she is not with you physically every minute of every day , you can bet your bottom dollar she is always thinking of you , sometimes when you don't even deserve it .
