Mother's Day

The first time I held him in my arms I knew I was in love!

I had never seen anything so beautiful in my life!  All my life, all I ever wanted to be was a wife and mother.  This little gift from God was my prayer-come-true.

Then, a few years later another little gift from God came along.  The most beautiful little girl I had ever seen!

Motherhood has been the greatest joy of my life.  Sure, there were ups and downs, good years and bad years, successes and failures, but these children brought such joy to my life.  Married to a great man, mother of two wonderful children who married two wonderful people, I was sure my life was complete.

And, then...........this little gift from God came along.

 

 Having all four of our children (our in-law children are our children now, too) in our home on Thursday nights for family dinner is Heaven-on-Earth for me.  Hearing this little girl talking and laughing...I could never thank God enough for His immeasurable gifts!
