Bees and Ninjas
What is it about hornets that makes me feel like I'm an elephant that just saw a mouse? I cower, panic and my body freezes up. Then I look for that moment when I can run as fast as I can to a safe place?
The great thing about motherhood is that you become a ninja warrior in the face of fear. Once my children are involved and I think this hornet might fly into my car and attack my children I start Karate chopping the air and using my body as a shield, but the minute I close the car door with my kids inside and me on the outside, I realize I'm weak again and run as fast and as far as I can away from this monster.
There is a real sense of empowerment with motherhood and I like being their protector and advocate. I am certainly a momma bear and I understand that feeling of wanting to shred someone alive for messing with my babies.
Thank you mother nature for helping me express myself today.
