Mother's Day isn't exactly "happy" for everyone. In 2003 I knew it was going to be my last Mother's Day with my Mom. She died a few weeks later. 2004 was my first Mother's Day without my mom (but it was also my first Mother's Day with my wonderful Mother-in-Law)! Mother's Day of 2006 was difficult because I was struggling with infertility and heard my doctor tell me that I may never have children. If your Mother is no longer alive, or you have a strained relationship with her, if you don't have children but desire them, or you have lost a child, today can be a very hard day. No words I say can take away the pain some of you experience on this day, but my thoughts are with those of you who are facing these battles!
I am thankful that God has placed many women in my life over the years who have "mothered" me and mentored me. I love those women who take the Biblical command seriously to teach the younger. I have certainly been blessed.
Mother's Day 2007 I was pregnant for the second time (the first baby I miscarried). Mother's Day 2008 I had a son! And Mother's Day 2009 I have another child on the way! I am thankful.

We finally got someone to take a family picture (Michael) and this is how it turned out. Hahaha
Me and my kids (that sounds weird!)
It may be Mother's Day, but every day is a day to celebrate having a good daddy in the home!

your so deep sometimes I like that. I wish my mom were here like she was when I was a kid. I really missed out on that. But, I have sooo soo soo much to be thankful for! Happy mothers day to you too!
NOW you are a party of four! I can't believe I am a party of 5! That was shocking to me! Looking into a back seat full of kids will be fun!
Lovely photos! You are an adorable and glowing preggo! Thank you too for always so verbally and consistently praising your hubby. That's a rebuke to me.
