Being a Mother




I would not have made a good mother.  I am too self-centered and I am not good at taking care of other people.  I remember when I was 10; I threw up in the middle of the night, in the middle of the hallway.  I made a real mess and I didn’t know what to do so I cried out for my mother.  She got up with me and rubbed my back as I stooped over, vomiting on the floor.  I went back to bed and she stayed up and cleaned up the mess.  I don’t think I thanked her. And now it is too late.
