That’s right, it is not Mother’s Day here, but Mom’s Day.

It takes a special person to be a Mom or a Mommy, and that is who this day is for. Mother’s are formal and stiff, and tell their children to not mess up her home, and one to never play or explore with her children. No, in this home we play together, we explore together, we get our home messy together, and we enjoy each other’s company.

Last year a family friend—a good woman in every aspect except for this—told me that someday I would get over the notion that it is fun and enjoyable to be with my children.

I never want to get over this notion. I do enjoy being a Mom, even when our home is messy and I’m being called to play games or to read some books, or to tuck someone in goodnight. I love them so much that I do want to be with them, and am too blessed to ever desire to get over this notion.

A dear friend wrote a piece that sums up my thoughts on Mom’s Day, so pay her a visit and read her post.
