Mother's Day

I can't believe I'm a Mommy! It's so crazy how fast time flies by and how much life changes. As I think back to when I was a teenager, I always knew I wanted to be a Mom. It seemed so far away at the time, but it's here and I love it! Of all the things I've chosen to do with my life, I feel becoming a Mother, along with being a wife, is by far the most important. Although my education is very important to me, nothing compares to how rewarding it is to have a child. This little guy depends on Me and Ben for everything. He's so sweet and helpless and when I think about the kind of responsibility that comes with being a parent it makes me feel so grateful that we've been entrusted with this little life. There's a lot of pressure that comes with raising a child, but the joy that comes far outweighs any stress or negativity.

I have had so many great examples of Mothers in my life and I thank all those who have influenced me in my journey to and through Motherhood. Happy Mother's Day to all the Mommies out there!
