An essay about my mother - Motherhood Cafe

My mother is absolutely amazing. She has had four kids, and has done so much for each of us. She doesn't favor any one over the other, no matter if one does something great, while the others just sit back and watch. The next time she just makes sure to encourage the others to take action.

When she was pregnant with me, her third child, she decided to start home schooling. A big factor in it was that my sister, the oldest child, was in fourth grade, and had already changed schools about seven times. It worked out well. She always keeps it going. I think it was a good choice for us. As proof you can take my two older siblings. They have both graduated high-school, and gone on to college. The oldest has graduated college, and gotten married.

She finds tons of opportunities for us, such as sports or music, or just random little things for us to do.

She encourages us with everything we do, and shows us that we can do anything if we set our minds to it. Because of what she's shown me, I don't think I will ever be afraid of what the future may hold.

A while before I came into existence, my mother had gotten saved. She taught all of her children about the Lord. She kept the Bible as a guide to raising us. In turn we all got saved, and the Lord has continued to be the guide in our lives even when we're not around her.

She answers our questions to the best of her knowledge, whether it be about the Bible or otherwise. She always seems to have the right answers, and if we don't understand what she meant the first time she finds a new way to explain it.

She is an amazing cook, and that's not just coming from her family. Many comment on how good her food is. They know this because she loves to have people over for dinner, or parties, or just because. She is a great hostess, and it's always a blast having people over, even though there are extra dishes afterwards.

She is very easy-going, but she requires obedience. So, we all know how to take orders with a good attitude. She taught us common sense, so we know what orders not to take, and also how to not take them kindly. So as not to offend.

She can handle a ton. Over a year ago now, one of the times my dad was deployed, my mother's mom died. While it was hard enough, for her mother to die, with her husband deployed at the time, she also found that multiple of her close friends weren't really her friends after all. Even while dealing with all of this, she was a wonderful mother, and she kept teaching us. Not just with school, but also with her life.

I have learned so much from her, and I hope to be a bit like her, if not more. I want my future family to grow up much like I have, because it has been an amazing experience, and I have learned so much.
