Mother's Day 2017

Holy crap guys I have FIVE kids and this was my 12th Mother's Day WOW!! I know, I know, old news but some how with each Mother's Day as the girls get older the meaning behind the day seems to change. Not because my older girls are getting really good and making me breakfast or because they are more and more creative with each passing year but because I understand more and more what it means to be THEIR mom. Each year I learn more about myself as a mom and just how I contribute to our family dynamic. I'm also learning how my girls contribute to our family and the joy they bring to us each and every day. Being a parent is full of questions that often go unanswered not because we don't know how to answer them but because we are continually being challenged to grow and change. Being a mom is the best, most rewarding, hardest job I know I will ever have and if I had to apply for and interview for it I'm not sure I would be selected. But nevertheless, I am here now and these girls show me how much the love and care for me every single day and that is all I could ever ask for.

A very Happy Mother's Day to all of the mamas out there.. and I sincerely Pray for all of the women out there working on becoming mothers themselves.
