I wish all of you a very happy Mother's Day today.
Becoming a mother has been the most fulfilling accomplishment of my life. God has been so wonderful to bless me with two beautiful children of my own. I can't imagine living my life without ever feeling this love. I am also truly thankful for my wonderful, supportive mom that God gave to me.
Being a mother means that you are full of love, encouragement and inspiration for your children FOREVER. I know that my mom will always be there for me and I will always be there for my babies.
Every mother, new and old needs to have a copy of one of my favorite children's books. Love You Forever by Robert Munsch. (click on the title to visit his website) I bought this book right after my son was born and to this day I can't finish the book without crying. My son always asks me "What's wrong, Mommy??" and I aways tell him just like the mother in the book singing her son to sleep:
"I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living
my baby you'll be."
Enjoy every moment of being a mother today and everyday. What a wonderful gift!
