Moms are Awesome!

Warren: Okay, love. You love your parents a lot, don’t you? Well, if you said, yes, you get a pat on the head (patting you on head). Seriously, your parents are awesome individuals. Well, mostly, I know this isn’t the case for everyone. However, we’re focusing on the good parents, like my Mom. Right Mom? Leah: I try to be a good Mom to you. There are times when I feel like I’m failing at being a Mom. But, I’m glad to know you think I am, because, truly, it’s your opinion that matters most on how I am as a Mom… since I’m YOUR Mom. Warren: I’m holding my Mom’s hand as we speak. I’m trying to love on her, but also, at the same time, I’m making it incredibly hard for her to type right now. But, I just wanted to talk about how I wouldn’t be able to really muster up the courage to do this blog if it wasn’t for Mom. So I just wanted to commend Moms on this blog. I might do something about my Dad next week, who knows. Anyway, Moms are the main guardian of the group. I mean, come on, they literally carried you in their uterus. If that wasn’t proof enough that Moms deserve instant respect, I don’t know what is!? I just don’t feel like enough kids are giving parents, especially Moms, the major, major respect that they deserve. I might sound like I’m being biased to my Mom (and I am), in this particular blog. But, the truth is, I love both of my parents. So, to all you Dads that feel left out, don’t worry, I love and respect you guys too. I just figured it’s only right that we start with the Moms. I’ve gathered, from my Mom, that parenthood is really hard. It probably is. Now, I can hear you Moms saying, “Oh, you have no idea.” And you’re right, I don’t. I try to sympathize, love and cheer up my Mom, no matter what. I mean, every little bit helps, right Mom? Leah: Yes, Warren, it does. I absolutely treasure and appreciate you. I know that we fight sometimes, it’s normal. I know we get moody with each other sometimes, it’s normal. But, no matter what, even in those times, I always love you. Just the same, we laugh together, we joke together, we sing together, we write together, we do everything together and that’s normal too. I love how, not only self aware YOU are, but how you actually SEE me as a person. You don’t just view me as your Mom, someone who doesn’t have thoughts and feelings of her own. You actually see me as the person I am (good or bad) and we relate on that level most of the time. Warren: Some of you can see, through this blog, just how strong our bond is and how strong it’s becoming. So, yeah Moms, this thirteen year old kid, that some of you don’t even know, salutes you!
