happy mommy's day...


I'll admit it: I have not always liked Mother's Day. It was a painful day for many years and before that, it was just an awkward day when someone forced me to take chocolate, insisting that, "Someday you will be a mother." Today was different. Because of this little lovey, today I walked confidently into the cultural hall after church and accepted my little chocolates graciously and looked around briefly... and couldn't help but have a little heartache for those around me for whom today might still be painful. So, this post is for you. Miracles absolutely do happen. Above is a picture of ours. Happy Mother's Day.

Happy mothers day to you. Your miracle is nothing short of pure adorableness. I love this little girl I've never met.

Also, you look pretty darn hot in that dress.

I need your phone #. I wanted to call and wish you a Happy Mother's Day, but it's not in my current phone.

Where do I get a dress like Zoey's? That must be the cutest dress ever!

Thank you for your post. Although my struggles to become a mother did not last as long as yours, I will be forever grateful for those mother's days I went without. It has made me more patient...more grateful...more empathetic of others. How happy I am for the miracle of modern medicine. I wouldn't trade the lessons I learned. Miracles like yours warm my soul!
