{my mother's day}

Dear Boys:  

It goes without saying that you were the greatest gifts I've ever received.  You make my heart smile every day....so every day is truly Mother's Day to me.   Although my journey to both of you was not typical, I would take every step of that long trip a million times over without hesitation. But only if it led me back to both of you. 

For whatever reason God shined on me to be your mommy, I am eternally grateful.  I pray everyday that I can help you grow into your fullest potential.  I pray that you see Jesus in me and that you crave that for yourself as each day passes.  I hope you forgive me when I fail as I will never claim to be a perfect mother.  I hope I am giving you sweet, simple memories that will last your lifetime. 

Thank you for simply being you.    

xoxo,

mommy to E

in posting about my Mother's Day.

All was really quite here as I had a sick little guy who

is home with me today as well.

Hmmmm.....I have a feeling that the screaming list that I actually

am avoiding peeking at now...will be waiting and delayed as well.

I'm in the thros of a real, live mommy's day!!  :)

Not here, but, I am alive. If only barely moving.

James' wedding went without a hitch (no pun intended) but, I have yet to recover. I will revisit in the somewhat near future as I do have alot to blog about.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day - it's always a day of overwhelming emotion here - but, maybe even a little more this year. But, all is good.
