Mothers Day

What is a Mother?

I looked up the definition of motherhood, here is what came up.

Motherhood: The kinship relation between an offspring and the mother

But it is so much more then that.

I am a new mom, but already in these past few months I cant imagine being anything but a mother, It is such a blessing! There are times that things get hard, with no sleep, a cranky baby, being sick, its hard! but I always tell myself that before I know it, I will miss this! the lack of sleep, getting up over & over in the middle of the night for feedings & diaper changes!

Being a mother is such a blessing!

And as I sit here and write this I think of a lesson Ive learned..
Last night I was thinking how i hoped my Husband got me something for my first Mothers day, I had hinted to him, but really wasn't sure id get anything because although he is sweet, gift giving isn't something he likes to do, so as I was laying in bed thinking I realized that its not a gift that makes the day special, its the people in it, My son & John
Every moment, whether its big or small is a blessing

(He did end up getting me a card & flowers though)
