WHY GOD MADE MOTHERS???

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 a 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." "Yes, 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 inquisitive Angel.

The Lord smiled and 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 is 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! Truly, You do all things well... Moms are truly amazing!"
