Happy Mother's Day to you

I am truly blessed to be someone's mother!

My first Mother's Day was particularly special.  I had just given birth to my first daughter and just got home from the hospital.  It was a great day.

Being a mother is wonderfully sweet but it has its moments.

As difficult as it is, I am glad to have had this chance to experience it.

You know, becoming a mother for me was no day at the park.

I went through some infertility along the way and a few miscarriages.

Also placenta accreta, a blood transfusion, delivery without epidural (unintentionally), D&C, and still survived.  

I would do it all over again for my beautiful girls.

A lot of times I am clueless to parenting skills.

But I always have my own mother to ask.

She is the reason I can be who I am as a mother.

I hope I can measure up to her standards as a great mother.

She is a very nurturing soul who always encourages, boost confidence, and backs you up - always!!!

We've had our differences, but she is my best friend and is always there for me.

Here's my mom:

She is the one next to my husband.

We have lots of laughs together.

I just wished we lived in the same state.

So I have a Mother's Day poem for all of you.

This was emailed to me by the Embroitique.com newsletter.

So cute!

So Happy Mother's Day all.  I hope you have a great day.

I know I will.  My family gave me these beautiful gifts today:
