I am
so proud of you my love
I
see how much you share
With
your little ones upon your knee
I
see the tiredness in your eyes
I
recognise the pain I see inside
I
know how you feel because
I
see myself in your eyes
When
you were small and full of beans
When
tiredness crept into my dreams
Yes
I see myself as I was then
And
now I see you as you do your best
I
know you feel less that perfect
How
do I know this?
It
is so simple my love because
I
felt the same all those years ago
I
felt as you do now
I
felt; less than human somehow
I
felt at a loss at times
On
how best to keep you safe and sound
You
pushed the limits, leapt and bound
Climbed
the trees just like me
Nothing
could stop your adventurous streak
Your
son now is so like you
So
independent and determined to go and do
Why
should it be different for him?
You
finally understand how tired I was
You
feel the same stress as I did then
You
are in my shoes as you raise your sons
You
feel like you are a bad mum at times
But
let me tell you how it goes!
You
will never feel … like all is well
There
will always be some things
You
maybe could have done better
But
honey realise; I am less than perfect
I
made mistakes and learned from them
I
still feel like I could have done so much better
But
now I realise that all any of us can do
Is
do the best we can every moment that we can!
So
rest assured you’re doing well
Your
boys are so beautiful and so well behaved
I
know they test your very limits at times
But
why should you be any different?
That
is the life every mother faces
Every
one of us at some time; wonders how we could have done it better?
