Mother, Teacher, Sister, Student all at the same time.
I am so glad that my mother is able, for three weeks, to visit her Father in America who isn't doing especially well, health wise.
This also means she is able to see my siblings who live on the other side of the world.
But it's not an easy act to follow. I am also so thankful for Dad, Tamara, and Benjamin who are maybe a bit more willing to help out with the Mother over the ocean blue.
So I continue to be a student - I started a course online through Australia Open Universities, doing a Bachelor of Education (Primary) course through Curtin University
I continue to be a sister/daughter and do my responsibilities of being a part of this family
I step into the roll of teacher as I, along with Tania (a homeschooling mum in our church) attempt to teach mums music class at homeschool group.
I also take up the responsibilites that Mother left behind, cleaning, cooking, washing, and keeping the home moving along.
So for the next 16 days I will do my role cheerfully as unto the Lord and not to men.
but Mother, come back soon.
