Thankful Post "My MOMMA"..

My momma!

If you know my mom, than you know she is the one to not put up with much crap!

Unless it is from her precious boys! hee.hee

Most kids grow up with those sweet and loving mothers, who gave lots of hugs and kisses. But, I have learned, that if no one taught you how to be loving, than you sometimes don't know how to show it to the ones you love. My mom is the oldest of four children.She may only be 5ft 1in, but she is one of the toughest, hard working woman I know. I am 32, and I don't remember her ever being without a job.

She got married and pregnant early in her life. Unfortunately, the man she married, loved alcohol and other women, more than his family. So, my mom wanted what was best for her 3 young children, and she left him. Well after she beat him up, while she was pg! Told you not to mess with her!


I know so many women, who stay with men, who are drunks, and abusive, just cause they don't want to be alone, even though they see how their kids are being mistreated, and I have all the respect in the world that my mom chose the hard road, instead of just settling to leave us in that lifestyle. She chose her children!

So, there she went, young, single, 3 little ones, and having to start all over. Let's not forget the $36.00 a month for 3 children for child support! Ha!

Fast forward to 3 years later, after working as a cook to support us, she meets my daddy.
A good-looking, hard working, man who fell in love with her, and all 3 of her babies.
She knew she struck gold for sure. And the rest is history..

Twenty Six years later, and 10 almost 11 grandchildren later, my mom still works, and is enjoying the life of being loved and spoiled. I told you I get it honest!
I have had the honor to watch my mom have a huge heart, and bless people with money, furniture, shoes, clothes. She taught me how to be giving, and always willing to help those in need.

I am also thankful, to how much she loves all her grandbabies. Especially those girls! She is the granny, that can be loving but don't let them act up either. And she loves to spoil them, and let them spend the night, when they kick my dad out of the bed.

And it never fails, that when one of her babies calls her, she can tell right away, if there is something wrong. She tells you the brutal truth, gives you words of wisdom, and always lets you know, her door is always open!

I am so thankful for my momma's love. Her example of how to be a strong woman. How no matter how old your babies get, you will always worry and love them with all your heart..
