My First Mother's Day As A Mommy

Last Mother's Day, I was about halfway through my pregnancy and excited that the next Mother's Day, I would have my baby in my arms.

I am a mother!! I can't think of a more challenging and yet rewarding job on Earth. I love my little girl so much! It also makes me appreciate my own mom in a way I had never before. You don't understand the love a mother has for their child until you have your own. It's amazing how much my heart has grown with love.

I once heard this quote, "Having children is like letting your heart walk around outside of your body." It's so true!!

I'm so blessed to have such amazing women in my life. My grandmothers, mom, and MIL are all so wonderful and I love them so much!! They are all special to me in their own ways. I'm so grateful that Emily has so much love surrounding her from everyone in the family. She truly is so loved and has so many awesome women around her!

I feel so priveliged that my Heavenly Father trusted me and loved me enough to allow me to have one of His precious daughters to raise and love as my own. I try my very best every single day to be the best Mommy I can be.

Happy Mother's Day!!
