Mother's Day with my boys!!




Mother's Day did not quite go as planned, seeing that I had a sick toddler and we were unable to make it to church in the morning.  Over the past few years, this special day has been bittersweet for me, as we have celebrated children yet to be born, although conceived, only to see them not come to fruition.  Last year, however, I was able to finally celebrate it with a sweet little boy by my side - and it was certainly a taste of heaven!

This year got even sweeter, despite the fact that it came without a celebration at church first.  Having a second little boy that (will eventually) calls me momma.  With Micah being sick, we were pretty low key, but Christian was able to whip up an amazing brunch!  Thank you honey!!  And then after Micah's nap, because it was such a beautiful day, we made the trek to the Morton Arboretum praying the fresh air would do Micah good.  Although I'm not sure that actually happened, it was still some wonderful family time and a mother's day celebration I won't forget.

I love my role as mother.  God has blessed me with 2 amazing boys, and I love being able to give to them.  I know they won't always need me in the way that they do now, so even though it can been tiresome to physically give of myself so much right now, I just remember that this won't last forever and I need to take full advantage of the time I have now.  I love you Micah and Reid!  Thank you for letting me be your Momma.  And Christian, you are the best husband a girl could have.  Thanks for always supporting me and loving me.
