The wonderful Keiko over at Hannah Wept, Sarah Laughed
wrote the most AMAZING post about Mother's Day. Check her out. Seriously. She's fabulous.
Mine wont be nearly as great as hers. So don't judge.
I've been an emotional wreck all week.
Mainly because I thought I was pregnant.
I mean, I really thought I was.
But I'm not.
I had dreams of this being my first Mother's Day.
What a great week to find out we're expecting.
But we're not.
I'm numb to this feeling.
But then I read this quote from another blog. (which I can't remember which one! Sorry)
"We're all mothers. Some of us just haven't met our babies yet."
And as I read that quote probably 50 times tears rolled down my face.
I am a mother in training.
I may not have a baby in my arms.
I may not be helping my kiddos with their homework.
Or tucking them into bed.
Or kissing their boo-boos.
But I already love them more than anything.
I've already prayed for them a million times or more.
I talk with them.
I dream about them.
I think about them daily.
So however it comes to be, whether you like it or not.
I am a mom. I just haven't met my babies yet.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL THE WONDERFUL LADIES OUT THERE.
ALL OF YOU.
SERIOUSLY.
