Moms & Music
May 14, 2012
Yesterday was a beautiful day. My little girl woke up in the middle of the night with a high fever; so I spent the day taking care of her. It is one of those things that just happens, so you conform to it and forget your previous Mother’s Day plans. At one point yesterday she was so uncomfortable, the only thing I could do to soothe her is sit in the rocking chair, sing and rub her forehead. My husband was a total help, but she just wanted her mom.
I think for me, I needed that kind of Mother’s Day. It helped me remember what our great job on earth is — motherhood or whatever — and why we commit to doing it. It surely doesn’t making the struggles in life easy, but it does make it easier. I’m again grateful for the moments where music makes everything better.
And a shout out to my mom and all the other women in my life that have taught me and helped me whenever I need it. <3
