Happy Mother’s Day

“Mother” is a word and feeling that is impossible to sum up. It means soooo many different things to so many!

Never perfect, but forever loving, Motherhood is the biggest blessing and challenge ever experienced.

My baby recently gave up the pacifier and since has been oh so cuddly when she had stopped doing that for a while. I had always felt this guilt for not being able to hold her more after her birth because my back/pelvis issues encountered after my youngest’s birth. I longed to hold her again and I know how important that time is. So, I’m enjoying these longer bedtime routines and the snuggling. Being so even physically close to another human being is so foreign to us in today’s world.

So, savor those running hugs after a long day of work… embrace those dramatic boo-boo grabs… let her sit on your lap and rock her like a baby because this time is a gift! Forget about the dirty dishes and the emails and love on this moment. Motherhood is a collection of moments and some we may not be so proud of. It is a journey or discovery–who you are and who your child is–and it’s always changing! Try not to be scared of the next step, have faith and teach your children to have faith! Read your books, but in the end, go with your gut! Buckle up and try to enjoy the wild ride! You got this mama!
