Happy Mothers Day



Happy Mothers Day to all of the Mamas out there.
You are special.

[warning: things may get a bit cheesy]

Happy Mothers Day to my Mom, I love you!
I am so thankful for everything you do for me.
You are always willing to help me out in any way you can.
You are always there to give me advice when I ask, but you don't force it on me.
I hope you have a great day!


I am grateful to be a Mom, even though some days, I'd give anything to go back to being young and carefree. Motherhood has not been easy for me. its been a big learning experience filled with tears & frustration. Some days, i ask myself what the heck i got myself into (and i'm sure when man #2 comes along, i'll be asking that a few times a day) BUT,
I love my little bear Jaxon more than i ever knew i could. He is such a sweetheart. He has taught me a lot about life, and about being a mother. He has softened my heart, and put things into perspective.  I am thankful the little stinker is my son.
I am also excited to meet my little Mason in a few months. He will no doubt be a sweet little man who will melt my heart.

I've learned that Mothers are SO important. I am Jaxon's Mom. I've been given that responsibility, and wow, its a big one. Everything little thing i do and don't do, is making an effect on that little guy. He looks to me for answers, for love, for comfort. Its a bit scary if you think about it! I am basically responsible for the person he becomes! eeeek!

I don't think you have to give birth to be a Mother. If you have ever "mothered" someone, cared for them, taken them in, sacrificed yourself for them, and loved with all your heart,
then Happy Mothers Day to you, too.

Sometimes, I stare at those little people that have been given to me to care for. They are so sweet, innocent, and full of so much love and joy. They are so angelic that it amazes me that something like that, something so wonderful, would want and need me. Those angels need my hugs, my kisses on their boo boos, my attention and affection. Those perfect little beings actually want my company. Me! A grumpy, imperfect person. It amazes me that I am blessed enough to merely be in their company let alone be their preferred company.

Relax. Be nice. Whatever.
