M.O.M


If you know what it is to be hungry, but you take the time to feed your children, husband, the neighbor’s children, and the cat before you sit down to eat, you must be a mom.

If you have ever been tired, but you stayed up anyway to wash, dry, and iron your child’s favorite shirt for the next day, you must be a mom.

If you have ever sat down with the last bit of a tasty treat only to have your ...children run in, drool over it, and beg you for it before you smile and give the rest to them, you must be a mom. 

Moms do so much for so many. So often moms, put themselves on the back burner. Sacrifice is our middle name. I always joke that Moms can never get sick because even when they are sick, they must keep on going to keep the house running smoothly. Alhamdulilah, as Moms, our reward is with Allah. We keep on going and going like the Energizer bunny. We rarely stop. Even when we are sleeping, we sleep with one eye open and one ear listening for a child who needs us in the night. This is...

*** So True....!
