I want to talk about my mother in phases of my life. As the last of 5 kids I got to see the family dynamics in a unique way. I got to see how my mom interacted with us on different levels depending where we were at in life. The first phase I want to talk about is as a mom. I know most of us will say that we have an amazing mom. I am no different. Although thing may not have been perfect at all times but looking back, I’ve had a great childhood. My mom poured everything into being a mother, she did everything in her power to raise us right. Did we always listen? No, but mom was quick to correct use when we didn’t. I don’t recall needing for anything. Did I get everything thing I wanted? No, but I had everything I needed. The 2nd phase I want to talk about is as a adolescent and a young man. During this time I got to see my mom as the worker. My mom work hard both inside and outside the home. As with most military spouse, my mom had to spend several years raising us alone as my dad served overseas. She did whatever it took. Cleaned houses, worked as a house cleaner at hotels. I recall my mom hopping on a bike to ride to work because the car wasn’t working. She did not believe in calling in. That applied to me going to school. No sick days for me. My mom worked hard for us and it reflected on how it impacted her physically later in life. The 3rd phase is as an adult. This is the time I got to fully appreciate what my mom has done for me. I am thankful for everything she’s done for me. She treated each of us kids as individuals and allowed us to make our own way. But the one thing I cherish most is that no matter what mistakes I made she always loved me and never held my past against me. I’ll miss my mom but I am grateful for being a child of Mae Moses.
