Mother's Day 2010

So many feelings were so close to the surface this Mother's Day.

I took a few minutes to look back at photos of where the years have gone.

I never would have imagined that our lives would take so many twists and turns...

I never imagined the sweet moments could be so sweet...

nor that the painful moments, could cause so much hopeless anguish.

What I have learned through it all?

To appreciate each and every day... every moment!

To value each child (and their unique-ness)

That there is always hope... And un-conditional, un-failing love...

To know that I am SO THANKFUL to be Brittany's "Mommy"

and Aaron's "Momma"

And to remember to take life (and mothering)

ONE DAY AT A TIME!

Thanks for the photo's Brit - great job!
