In a world where people do crazy stuff just to look “beautiful,” Cathy stood out of the crowd. We all are very well aware of society’s unrealistic definition of being beautiful. But how many of us know its true meaning? The stunning actress Audrey Hepburn once answered this question perfectly by stating: “For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”
Many people have this habit of forgetting about themselves for others and who could be a better example of it than mothers? So, this is the story of one such woman who cared for nothing but her kids, and that’s what made her happy and peaceful. Her only issue? She couldn’t recognize herself whenever she looked in the mirror!!
Meet Cathy
Keeping ourselves up-to-date has become a priority for the majority of the population these days. Be it attractive hair color or a pretty new dress. It goes the same way for men too, after all, men or women, anyone would love to look presentable. Cathy’s case, however, is different from the majority and that’s the reason why we chose her story to be told today.
An Odd One Out
Yes, many people are least bothered about what others think of them, but they too love to dress up according to their preference and comfort. Well, Cathy’s style and her knowledge about these latest trends were zero. Yes, she lived on Earth all these years but her mind was completely focused on bringing up her children.
A Mother’s Responsibility
After many unsuccessful attempts, finally, during the year 1993, the most awaited moment arrived in Pennsylvania resident, Cathy’s life when she gave birth to her first child. The moment she held the just-born in her arms for the first time ever, it changed everything for her. As the motherly feelings took over her, she was least worried about herself and most worried about her baby. Guess that’s what being a mother is all about.
A Lost Lady
Babies are a much bigger responsibility than anyone can imagine. Usually, moms are found complaining about how magical yet incredibly difficult it is to be a mother. Very rarely will you meet a mother who’ll say that she got it all real nice. Well, Cathy is blessed to be one such mom who indeed had it all under control. Even though it changed her as a person entirely, she was happy about it.
Fulltime Mother
From the very day she became a mother, Cathy turned her complete focus on her kids. Although she had an option to continue working, she chose to be a full-time mother. From diapers to preparing their lunches, from early morning school bus chases to late night bedtime stories, Cathy put her heart and soul into bringing up her kids.
Thankful Kids
The best part about Cathy is that she never freaked out of motherhood rather she admired her role as a mother more than anything else. Years after years, her days started by waking up the kids and ended by checking on them if they are asleep or not. Somewhere she lost track of her own identity in bringing up her kids. Undoubtedly, her kids noticed their mother’s selfless nature.
