WHEN GOD MADE MOMS
By the time the Lord made mothers, he was into his sixth day of working
overtime.
An Angel appeared and said, "Why are you spending so much time on this
one?"
And the Lord answered and said, "Have you seen the spec sheet on her?
She has to be completely washable, but not plastic, have 200 movable parts,
all
replaceable, run on black coffee and leftovers, have a lap that can hold
three children
at one time and that disappears when she stands up, have a kiss that can
cure
anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart, and have six pairs of
hands."
The Angel was astounded at the requirements for this one. "Six pairs of
hands! No
Way!", said the Angel. The Lord replied, "Oh, it's not the hands that are
the problem.
It's the three pairs of eyes that mothers must have!" "And that's just on
the standard
model?", the Angel asked. The Lord nodded in agreement, "Yes, one pair of
eyes are
to see through the closed door as she asks her children what they are
doing, even
though she already knows. Another pair in the back of her head are to see
what she
needs to know even though no one thinks she can. And the third pair are
here in the
front of her head. They are for looking at an errant child and saying that
she
understands and loves him or her without even saying a single word."
The Angel tried to stop the Lord. "This is too much work for one day. Wait
until
tomorrow to finish." "But I can't!", the Lord protested, "I am so close to
finishing
this creation that is so close to my own heart. She already heals herself
when she is
sick AND can feed a family of six on pound of hamburger and can get a nine
year old
to stand in the shower!"
The Angel moved closer and touched the woman. "But you have made her so
soft,
Lord." "She is soft", the Lord agreed, "but I have also made her tough. You
have no
idea what she can endure or accomplish." "Will she be able to think?",
asked the
Angel. The Lord replied, "Not only will she be able to think, she will be
able to
reason, and negotiate."
The Angel then noticed something and reached out and touched the woman's
cheek.
"Oops, it looks like you have a leak with this model. I told you that you
were trying to
put too much into this one."
"That's not a leak", the Lord objected, "That's a tear!" "What's the tear
for?", the Angel
asked. The Lord said, "The tear is her way of expressing her joy, her
sorrow, her
disappointment, her pain, her loneliness, her grief, and her pride." The
Angel was
impressed. "You are a genius, Lord. You thought of everything. WOMEN are
truly
amazing!"
