I’m the Mama

I just left my son’s school, they had a kindergarten breakfast to celebrate the end of the school year. It feels so good to be a mom. Especially when your son is brilliant and handsome and loves to play around. I adore walking with him hand in hand. He’s as proud of me as I am of him. He makes me weak when I see him because I have never really experienced love like this. Nothing compares to this. Nothing is as concrete as this.

In a hour or so I’m off to my 3 yr old’s school for a Mother’s Day Luncheon.

“We’ve been practicing the Mother’s Day song!” he told me this morning. “All of the other friends Mommy’s will be there.”

“I’ll be there too baby.”

I can’t wait to have him proudly introduce me as his Mommy. Talk about feeling HONORED! I love it!

And when I got home this morning to check my email, I saw this in my inbox.

Isn’t that sweet?!!!It’s from my friend “B”. Yeah, we still email and text everyday but we have also started talking on the phone. I’m not attracted to him anymore because… I’m just not. But he has proved to be a very positive addition to my life. It’s funny cuz I always say I can judge who is my friend and who isn’t by one factor. Does the person inquire about how my kids are doing? Do they recognize that besides being a sexy intelligent woman, I am also a MOTHER?That may seem simple but I have noticed many, many men trying to be up in my face and most of them never even think to ask if my boys are well. I’m not looking for a Sugar Daddy, in fact I never date men who have money cuz it’s not a factor for me since I don’t depend on men for help, but it would be nice to meet a man who would say, “Hey, I wanna surprise you with some groceries tonight. Is that okay?”Forget the diamonds and clothes and shoes. I’d really prefer a full tank of gas. So far no man I’ve ever met is thoughtful like that.But “B” is. Even though we are not dating, I think he is in my life to prove to me that there are sensitive, extremely attractive, ambitious, patient and encouraging men in this world.I wonder if Dude will even call me on Mother’s Day. I have a feeling he won’t. He’s so sweet to me when he’s around me but sometimes I think he doesn’t mean it. He says he has to learn to be more thoughtful and he’s thankful that I am patient with him. But sometimes I get tired of being the teacher.Happy Mother’s Day to YOU and yours!Love,Ms. Tee
