Motherhood - this Mama Bear knew, felt that her baby cub was in trouble. She showed up, just in time to ward off impending doom. I feel like that Mama bear some times - because I know, and I feel, and I sense, and I show up to save them. And at times they welcome my saving, and they nestle in my arms, snuggle under my chin - cry softly, tears of relief and love. And at times I am screaming to them, "DANGER, DANGER, DANGER"!! And they turn away from me and head straight toward the harm, the ill-intent I wince and cover my eyes, as I hold on to my heart, and pray they find their way through the storm.
This video of the Mama and her cub together is SO beautiful to me. I felt it so strongly - the love, the protection, the strength, the relief, the promise. Ah, motherhood.

How is your sister making out. I have been thinking about you a lot.
The hardest yet most rewarding job we can every have. Hang in there sweetie, praying for you and your family........:-) Hugs
Of course don't let them deal with the tom cat in my back yard...now that is dangerous!
HI JOEY-
Sometimes it is hard to discern between the tom cat and the kitty cat!! :-)
Hi Bernie-
I know, Motherhood is quite an endeavor. Thanks for your kind understanding.
Hi Cinner-
Ya, instinct indeed. I am such a protector - although it is hard to protect that which travels far away, and not always just in distance.
Love and appreciation for you all
Gail
peace.....
Hi Gail
Just checking your post before I go to bed.
I spent the day watching my son play baseball in Denver and as I watched him play I was thinking how blessed I am to be his mother.
I know how you love your children and want to protect them from danger.
I feel just the same but know I just have to let them go and learn about life on their own!
I'm always there( as you are) when they need my guidance.
Being a mother is truly the most wonderful blessing in my life!
Loved the video and the lovely words you shared!
You touched my heart!

Love Gail

*waves* How are you doing, Mama bear?
Your words and video touched my heart. So true about motherhood. A mother's love is like no other. Your children know that you will always love them and be there for them.
Take care
