										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In honor of the day this blog is published I am taking a break from my normal blog style. From my files her are two of my favorite resources for Mother’s Day. The first is a light-hearted look at mothers from the eyes of elementary age children. The second is warm-hearted, soul-filled inclusive tribute. The final word is God&#8217;s.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Some Humor</span></p>
<p><strong>Why did God make mothers?</strong><br />
To help us out of there when we were getting born.</p>
<p><strong>How did God make mothers?</strong><br />
He used dirt, just like for the rest of us.<br />
God made my Mom just the same like he made me. He just used bigger parts</p>
<p><strong>Why did God give you your mother and not some other mom?</strong><br />
1. We&#8217;re related.<br />
2. God knew she likes me a lot more than other people&#8217;s moms like me.</p>
<p><strong>What kind of little girl was your mom?</strong><br />
I don&#8217;t know because I wasn&#8217;t there, but my guess would be pretty bossy.<br />
They say she used to be nice.</p>
<p><strong>What&#8217;s the difference between moms and dads?</strong><br />
Dads are taller &amp; stronger, but moms have all the real power &#8217;cause that&#8217;s who you got to ask if you want to sleep over at your friend&#8217;s.<br />
Moms have magic, they make you feel better without medicine.</p>
<p><strong>What would it take to make your Mom perfect?</strong><br />
1. On the inside she&#8217;s already perfect. Outside, I think some kind of plastic surgery.</p>
<p><strong>If you could change one thing about your Mom, what would it be?</strong><br />
1. She has this weird thing about me keeping my room clean. I&#8217;d get rid of that.<br />
2. I&#8217;d make my Mom smarter. Then she would know it was my sister who did it and not me.<br />
3. I would like for her to get rid of those invisible eyes on the back of her back of her head<br />

<p style="text-align: center;"><u>The Wide Spectrum of Mothering</u></p>
<p>To those who gave birth this year to their first child—we celebrate with you<br />
To those who lost a child this year – we mourn with you<br />
To those who are in the trenches with little ones every day and wear the badge of food stains – we appreciate you<br />
To those who experienced loss through miscarriage, failed adoptions, or running away—we mourn with you<br />
To those who walk the hard path of infertility, fraught with pokes, prods, tears, and disappointment – we walk with you. Forgive us when we say foolish things. We don’t mean to make this harder than it is<br />
To those who are foster moms, mentor moms, and spiritual moms – we need you<br />
To those who have warm and close relationships with your children – we celebrate with you</p>
<p>To those who have disappointment, heart ache, and distance with your children – we sit with you<br />
To those who lost their mothers this year – we grieve with you<br />
To those who experienced abuse at the hands of your own mother – we acknowledge your experience<br />
To those who lived through driving tests, medical tests, and the overall testing of motherhood – we are better for having you in our midst<br />
To those who have aborted children &#8211; we remember them and you on this day<br />
To those who are single and long to be married and mothering your own children &#8211; we mourn that life has not turned out the way you longed for it to be<br />
To those who step-parent &#8211; we walk with you on these complex paths</p>
<p>To those who envisioned lavishing love on grandchildren, yet that dream is not to be &#8211; we grieve with you<br />
To those who will have emptier nests in the upcoming year – we grieve and rejoice with you</p>
<p>To those who placed children up for adoption – we commend you for your selflessness and remember how you hold that child in your heart<br />
And to those who are pregnant with new life, both expected and surprising –we anticipate with you<br />
This Mother’s Day, we walk with you. Mothering is not for the faint of heart and we have real warriors in our midst. We remember you.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Proverbs 31:30-31 </span></p>
<p>“Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.<br />
Honor her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.”</p>
