I LOVE Mother's Day! I really really do! I am so thankful for the gift of being a mother. I really enjoy a whole day set to bring attention to the blessings of motherhood. Not so much a day about flowers, pampering and special treatment - but a day, that even when Nathan is screaming or not wanting to eat his lunch (both of which happened today) even then, I reflect on how blessed I am to have such a wonderful family.
It is a day to really pray about all of the dreams I have for our son, and for the new baby that we haven't even met yet. A day to reflect on what is truly important for our family, and re-focus where we have gotten off course. A day to appreciate that my own mom, once looked at me so small and had hopes and dreams for me. A time to realize, that I likely did not fulfill all of them, and that I probably broke her heart along the path of growing up a time or two - and I hope that she looks on now and is proud of the daughter that she has raised. I love you mom!
Oh what a wonderful day!
