Not Us

Without any hesitation I can say that my son has made me the mother I am today.

He has made me strong and brave as he has allowed me to come along with him as he faces his challenges in the same way.

He has increased my awareness that everyone is beautifully different and capable.

He has helped me to find the joy in each day.

He has shown me an appreciation for the simple things.

He has taught me the importance of kindness,
patience and understanding.

He has shown me that words and actions do matter, especially those directed towards someone else.

He has taught me that there is more than one way to communicate and more than one way to do most anything.

He has taught me that it is okay to have hard days and bad days.

He has shown me the power of hope, love and positive thinking.

He has taught me that you can still go through hell and smile.

I’m an improved version of who I once was.

He has made me better. He pushes me to be the best version of myself every day.

I read a quote recently and it said,

“ men are what their mothers made them”.

But, that’s not the case for us.
