I won't lie - I love all the pampering that can come with Mother's Day, the hugs and kisses from the kids, the gift from my hubby and the breakfast in bed that I see on some years. It's kind of like another birthday - but better.
Becoming a mom for me was not easy. It was prefaced with tears and begging and hoping and praying that our dream would one day come true. Well, that dream did come true. Little Girl made me a mommy, which changed my life forever. And, Baby Boy gave me a son that I love to pieces and says really sweet things like tonight when I was passing by his room at church and he was crying "mommy - I want you. Hold you mommy. I like you. Please mommy." Ohhhhhhhhhh he makes me melty. I love having a boy.
It's a rare day that I feel sad anymore that my body didn't "make a baby". My babies came to me differently and I couldn't be more blessed than with these 2 little beings that have become my very own - heart and soul.
Plus, I heard something today on facebook that made me smile as an adoptive momma.
"Adoption is the new pregnant".
Ha! Love it.
I'm so thankful God gave me HIS best for me and not just what I thought I wanted. His plans are always better than what we can dream up for ourselves.
Have a great night!
