My First Mother’s Day
What a great feeling! Being a MOM! I tell you I don’t know why yesterday felt so good. I am a mom every day. I guess just the fact that for years every other mother around the world has been recognized and I along with those who are not just go went on about our business. Or worse those who of us who were/are trying to become a Mom hate the fact that they are not yet recognized as parents. Now after many years of trying to become a MOM, I am a Mom and I love it. Nothing feels better than knowing that a little tiny person, your little tiny person feels secure in your arms, that the sound of your voice is enough to calm their cries and that no matter how much you screw up they will love you until the ends of the earth. I love you too girls, more than you will every know. Everyday I thank God that you are here with me. I pray that life will be kind to you both. What ever life brings us, I will ALWAYS be there for you.
We didn’t do much for Mother’s day, we stayed at home and enjoyed being with each other. As a gift I got lots of love and cuddles a red rose and an excuse to go shopping ( I got a gift certificate to my favorite mall as a gift). A word I think my husband had grown to hate. He says that just saying the word makes me smile. I think I smile because he tries to make me smile by saying "shopping" is this goofy tone with a HUGE grin on his face. Who wouldn’t smile?
I love the smell of fresh roses. A heavenly scent and the soft petals. I held the girls up to the roses so that they could smell them, I could see their little nostrils flare and a little thought drift through their minds. They must have liked it, they both took another sniff and looked very peaceful. I touched the soft petals to their cheeks, silk.
