Mom does the work that would take a village.
She’s the town landscaper,
the cleaner who picks up after the kid tornado that storms through her house,
the chef and waitress who oversees and serves every meal AND snack,
the referee constantly breaking up sibling fights,
the teacher of everything from homework to the world around them,
the scheduler who makes every appointment, playdate, birthday party, and project deadline,
the life coach, who gives advice, comfort, and a listening ear,
the nurse who fixes boo-boos with magical kisses and colorful band-aids,
and the list goes on,
and on,
and on.
This job,
that she devotes her life to,
would take a village of people to replace her.
That’s exhausting.
She does 𝘴𝘰 much,
𝘵𝘰𝘰 much,
and she’s taken for granted while doing it.
But the village, no matter how many people,
wouldn’t be as good as her.
Even if they got the tasks done faster
they wouldn’t be better—because they wouldn’t have the same magical loving touch.
So, remember how amazing your mom is.
She does the most challenging job in the world,
