I can't help but remember how I felt this time last year facing the toughest day of the year for a woman waiting for her miracle. There are still some very special ladies in my life that are waiting on their babies to complete their families...
If you have a few minutes - just say a prayer for my friends: Summer, Jenn I., Leslee, and several others... may they have their miracles either in their arms or in their bellies before another Mother's Day rolls around.
This year has a very different feel for me... and I'm grateful for both blessings that I've got in 2010... it is more challenging than anything I'd ever expected, but more than worth it! I know that the boys living in my house have some things cooked up for tomorrow, and I can't wait to enjoy it with them.
I wish all the Mother's out there a very special and happy Mother's Day... and for those of you still waiting... just remember that this day isn't solely about having children... it's a celebration of all the things that women do in the world... and no matter what, each of us leaves a special mark on those in our lives!
Thinking about you today! Glad it's not an m-day but MOTHER'S day! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day, my love and thank you for the prayer request.
ReplyDeleteThis year wasn't so bad on me. One of the songs we sang was "It Is Well With My Soul".
Our song choices always tie in to the sermon, but I feel like today, that song spoke directly to me and every other person awaiting a miracle in their life.
It's easier on some than others...especially those who feel they are past an acceptable age to become mothers for the first time, even if by way of adoption.
