"The ghosts of all the women
you used to be are all so proud
of who you have become."
~Nikita Gil
Only just this early morn, I
found myself pondering just
how many women I have been . . .
Part-time jobber, college student
wife, young mother, teacher,
university prof, caregiver, retiree,
just to name a few . . .
I'd have to say though, my fave
station in life has been mother!
There's all that planning, hoping,
praying and finally, the doc says,
"Yep, you're preggers!" Right!
I always wanted a hippy doctor!
I loved being pregnant! I adored
my babes in arms. I felt blest to
be able to nurse. Watching them
grow, become, stand up and stand
out . . . wow! Just WOW!
I have loved and enjoyed my step
children as well. Seems to me, all
our children are the greatest of
blessings!
I am ever so grateful that one of
women I got to be was mother . . .
