Being a mom


Today is a beautiful, bright, warm day. A perfect day. Made more perfect by my four adorable children. I woke up to "happy mother's day!", cards, homemade gifts, poetry, flowers, a wonderful breakfast... I am one lucky girl! Kelly has been so helpful and kind making my day peaceful and enjoyable. I can't wait to hear my children sing at church...Mother I love you Mother I do...It is a special day. I love being a mom!!!! I love it for all it requires and for all it's many returns. I love the times that take my breath away and for the times of shear joy and contentment. I love motherhood for all it has taught me about myself, my abilities, and my spirituality, it has helped me to grow, to stretch, to see the bigger picture, to marvel, to witness innocence and pure love, to see through "their eyes", to be an example. I love it all and wouldn't dare wish for anything else. Family is everything. I'm filled to the brim today!
