I'll admit that "PAST" Mother's Days have been rough... It has always been a very emotional day for me. Just the fact that I don't pop out babies like most women-I think that I've felt somewhat inferior to them. Also, on Mother's Day I can't help but feel sympathy for those women who have not been able to have any children of their own. So much so that it's been hard for me to fully appreciate those that do...
Yesterday was different. In fact I didn't feel any of the feelings that I normally do on Mother's Day. Instead of being so self absorbed and focused on what I and other women who suffer from infertility don't have, I found myself being entirely grateful for what I do have. I am so thankful for my little Tate! As crazy as he is sometimes... He is the greatest little kid and I love him so much. I have also been blessed with the most wonderful Mother! She is an amazing woman and such an inspiration to me. My Mother in Law is equally awesome.
I feel so blessed!
:) I love reading your blog, and I have the same problem. I have one amazing beautiful son, and cant seem to have anymore children.. I am so grateful to be able to have him since so many cannot have any at all. Thank you for sharing, :)
