Someone said not too long
ago that I had an odd sense of
humor when it came to
Motherhood, To that eersen,
address this entire epistle.
Motherhood is a wonderful
experience. Nothing in the
whole world can compare to the
thrill of giving life.
In fact, I often feel syroathy
for the men of the nations who
will never know the sheer joy of
giving forth another human
body as God has destined
women to do. Perhaps, though,
fathers have been blessed with
some ulterior sensation just as
gratifying to them,
But there are mothers — and
there ,are mothers.
Mothers — the true bine kind
meant to have hordes of children
at their knee — are the women I
envy most. They are •born to
mother. They are gifted with
patience and tolerance and
gentleness and kindness and all
the other attributes poets
associate with good mothers.
Mothers like these are
invaluable, both to their own
children, the neighbors' children
and any children who may
happen by,
God help me, I'm not that
kind of a mother.
I love my own three children,
but like that man says, "I
wouldn't give a nickel for
another one."
I'm ,not happiest when I'm
surrounded by kids.
Contentment for me isn't
settling the day's arguments
between a bunch of boisterous
brats. I don't get my kicks from
worrying how to pay the bread,
man or where to get the funds
for six new pairs of winter
boots.
I wish I was more of a mother
— the true blue kind
aforementioned. But I'm not,
and I refuse to be a martyr to a
Cause just because society
expects me to.
What's more, I'm willing to
bet there are thousands and
thousands of women who feel
exactly as I do. It isn't that
we're hard, cruel monsters
without any feeling for children.
It is simply that we admit a
failing to mother as abundantly
as other mothers can.
An it's healthier for everyone
that' we"izicterstri{d'`ouraelvesr
and learn not to be asharnetf.
If a woman feels that one
more' child in the home would
be the worst thing that could
happen to her, she probably is
on the verge of serious mental
collapse brought on by an accute
.r..ase of diap.er-tension.
Maybe she's prone to foolish
anxiety about the health of her
family. Could be she's rightfully
worried about fin.m.ces. Perhaps
;he's just mentally tired from
Jeing saddled with the weight of
•esponsibility for raising kids in
;his wicked world.
If there are still people in the
world who honestly believe that
!very child born is a wanted
child, 010 spine folks have a lot
of growing up to do.
Why the push for greater
flexibility in the abortion laws?
Why all the excitement Over the
pill? Why are families hecOMing
noticeably smaller and maternity
wards, consistently emptier?
Mothering mothers are a
Godsend to mankind, Babies are

But let's be honest, Some of
