Blog 2

It is me again! I am a day late doing my blog. It is because of this, that I know what I want to say this time. WOMEN ROCK!!!!!! For the last week and one day, my family has been extremely sick. A couple of my children got so sick that they were in the hospital. I got extremely sick and so did my husband. It has been horrible. I noticed though that as a mother, I did not even realize how sick I was until days after it had started and when I knew all my kids were all better! It was as if all my pain went away and my focus was on them. This is not the first time that I have noticed this. I have had migraines that would normally knock me off my feet, but when the kids are awake it stops mattering until they are in bed that night. When I was a little girl, my mom was the same way with us. I have also noticed that my four year old and my two year old daughters are the same way! If someone is not feeling well, they want to help them with anything they can. They have a baby brother. When he is not feeling well, they will rub is back, cover him up, WIPE HIS NOSE ON THEIR CLOTHES, and wipe his tears. I am not trying to say anything bad about men. The men in the family were there to help too. It is just weird. I don't feel like I have raised my daughters any differently than my boys. I feel like I have raised them all to be compassionate, loving, and emotional. It is almost like we are hard wired to be motherly when we are born??!!?? It is almost like we have something in our brain that says take care of others first no matter what. It is something to think about anyways!!
