Mother's Day

This Mother's Day was the most special day to me this year. You are truly a gift and you are the reason I am a mother. I never knew the joy of being a mother until you came along and I am happy that the Lord gave you to Daddy and me. Mother's Day started early after I pumped, you were awake and ready to eat. You were sweet and gave me the sweetest smile when I picked you up out of the crib.

 You and Daddy gave me my first pair of Jack Roger sandals for mother's day.

We went to church and you listened to Daddy preach. You are beginning to want to talk to Daddy while he preaches and I have to take you to the nursery. I think you just don't understand why daddy is not giving you all of the attention like he normally does.

In Sunday School, you made me the cutest candle with your footprint. It was my favorite gift that day. After church, we went out to eat at Grandma's house and then went to see Ma. We ate with Nonna the Friday before. I do not think I truly understood how much a mother loves their child until your were born. Your grandmother is the best mom to me and I now know how much she loves me and Uncle Colby and now you! I will always remember this sweet first mother's day. Thank you for making me a mom. I strive to be a Godly mama for you and I want you to love the Lord and just know how good He is to us. He has really blessed us with so much and I want you to experience His Goodness. Happy Mother's Day to Grandma, Nonna, and Ma!
