Traveling with Mom

There are times that we travel with our mothers.  I did yesterday.  Now, I know that some do not look forward to this experience.  Yesterday, we had a good time, stopped at some good places, and had a great lunch.  In the midst of this time, my mother looks at me and says something about tolerating being with her.   Up to that point I did not think of it that way.
 
My mother put up with three children and a Morecraft man.  The last is difficult enough, but three kids.  Ugh.  She started as a stay at home mom, then a job, then a career in Nursing.  All of these changes came with the support of her family, until supper was not cooked. LOL
 
Through difficult times, her and Dad were always there.  In times of joy and triumph, they were always there.  Now it is just her.  She is always there.  Sometimes she has a lot of advice.  Sometimes, she plans a little too much.  Yet, rest assured, she is always praying, always hoping for her family.
 
Tolerating her?  No.  More like enjoying the time I have with my Mom.  Enjoy yours.
