For a number of years a Russian peasant woman held the record for having the most children. She bore 69, including numerous multiple births. She was most certainly a mother, and undoubtedly a good one. But I can't help wondering was she a good mother?.
What is a good mother anyways? A good mother doesn't nag, well doesn't nag much; only the essential amount and only about essential matters. Like why a kid needs to shower when they just did last week, or why the dish fairy can't make it this week, and which noises are easily produced, but socially unacceptable. .
A good mother cooks, cleans, and launders without expecting to be appreciated. She knows that only on television commercials do kids get excited about fresh laundry or seeing their reflection in the china. In real life most kids have lost directions to the laundry room and would be content to eat off paper plates or pizza boxes until the dish fairy should decide to return. .
A good mother will make her point regardless of what the situation may be. She can make herself heard over a blaring CD player by teenagers hanging upside down over a bed with a phone plastered to one ear. .
A good mother is hard headed about discipline especially compared with "everyone else's mother." And soft-hearted about everything else. She motivates her children to help them reach their full potential and praises them whenever she catches them doing something right. God made Fathers to put their children in their place, to make them realize the reality of what they are and who they should be. Then he made Mothers to rebuild their childrens" hopes and dreams, to inspire and enlighten, to follow and idealize. A mother's child is always the best in school and everywhere else for that matter. .
A good mother gives her children more than a balanced diet and a roof over their heads. She is by far much more than just a live in reminder service, cook, cleaning lady, and resident taxi driver.
