As we prepare for our annual Mother’s Day service at LifePointe Church, I am becoming very nostalgic. Not prohibition-do-the-lindy-buy-bonds nostalgic…just recalling-the-great-things-about-my-mom nostalgic.
I have to ask myself “would I do the things for her she did for me?”
The answer: It’s hard to say.
Would I give up the last slice of pie? Probably not…but in hindsight, I should have!
Would I work for the government for 35 years so that I could have a spoiled kid squander the paychecks I brought home? Probably not.
Would I go to stupid plays, baseball, football, soccer and basketball games, boring PTA conferences, and the likes, without complaining…once? Absolutely not.
You know, this list could go on forever, but I just want it on the record that I’m not half the person my Mom is.
Oh, yeah…and I saw Speed Racer this weekend and it kicked butt!
Thanks, Mom, and I hope you have a great Mother’s Day!
