Mother's Day


This was my first Mother's Day as a mother.  It was lovely to have this honor of being a mother and honestly, I think I am mother to the most beautiful baby ever!  AND I am lucky enough to have a wonderful, kind and loving mother, as well.

Mother's Day, for me, comes with mixed emotions.  It was 3 years ago that I called my mom to wish her Happy Mother's Day and found out that my mom and dad were at the hospital.  I can hardly believe that my dad has been gone almost 3 years!  So much has happened, yet at times it feels like just yesterday that I could call my dad to talk to him.   I am so grateful for the loving family he and my mom raised me in and for all that they showed me by example.   I still can't imagine how they raised 7 children, the challenges and chaos of 1 child is overwhelming at times!
