Today we're celebrating mother's day, a special day set aside to appreciate all mothers. Of course it's not as if it's only today we should celebrate them, we should keep celebrating them everyday because they are very special, today was only picked as their day.
Imagine someone who carries a child for nine months, deliver the baby and then start breastfeeding them to start taking care of the child till the child is grown enough to take care of him or herself.
I've seen a pregnant woman before and I can tell how stressful it's, a lot of women would loose their body shape, some will become fat, for some their face will change to something else entirely, some would lose their beauty during that period, women go through alot when they are pregnant and then to the pain that come with child birth is not child's play.

Some people can't stand the pain, so they prefer caesarean section and to some they go through the surgical procedure because there are serious problems that prevent the baby being born by a normal vaginal birth.
My sister gave me a detailed explanation of how she gave birth and I was like wow, believe me it's not an easy thing at all. I sincerely respect all women out there, you guys are just wonderful, you're strong,you're not weak.
She was at the hospital that night on the bed trying to push but the baby is not coming out so the nurses leave her there and told her to call them when she's ready, I don't know how someone can be so mean, sorry to say.
Telling someone that's in pains to call them when she's ready and it's not even as if they are close by, they went to attend to some other patients, leaving her alone in the ward.
She was all alone in there, but God helped her after some time she felt the baby was coming, so she managed to call them, she don't have a choice though. Thank God her voice was heard, they attended to her and after some minutes, she delivered the baby.
After all that stress of child delivery, she continue taking care of her child, breastfeeding, bathing the child and so on.

In my country we have different kinds of songs for mother's, but just a few for Father's, I don't know if it's the same in other countries. I don't know what we Father's do wrong, people tend to appreciate mothers more than Father's, well such is life.
Fathers are also trying though, it's not easy to be a man, it's not easy to cater for the needs of the whole family, the responsibility of the father is most times too much, no matter the situation of things in the country, the family expects the man to come home with something. Someone said something one day that after his research he found out that grandmothers are more than grandfathers because of the stress they go through while trying to take care and provide for the family.
Family is over everything, I really appreciate family and I don't joke with them, my parent, my siblings and my new family are everything to me, they are so important and I don't joke with them. God bless and protect them for me.
