Mother's Day




I realize Mother's Day was a couple of weeks ago, but I just got one of my gifts today. I was excited to celebrate or I guess be celebrated for the first official time in my life. I had a great day, I mean everyday is really mother's day anyway. Jet got me some flowers, Almond Roca, and some headbands, he is so sweet to me. I also got a silver necklace with Jet's name and birthday on it. When more kids come I can add their charms to the necklace.
My thoughts on mother's day were of gratitude. The other night I was watching and playing with Jet and just thinking of how much I love him, want the best for him, and just have such hope that he will do great things in his life. In my mind I changed Jet for myself and myself for my mom. I thought about how much care and love she must have given me from the very beginning and those same feelings of love she felt and feels for me I now feel for my own child. That someone would feel those things for me and take so much time to care for me makes me feel grateful. I don't think I had any understanding of the sacrifice and power of a mother's love until I became a mother.
