First of all, a HUGE THANK YOU to all of our loyal blog
followers for the kind words of encouragement related to my previous blog
post. I appreciate how accepting
everyone was of my honesty. It
feels nice to be able to have an outlet for my emotions.
Mother’s Day:
It is Mother’s Day…..It is my second year to be celebrating
as MMMM..MA to Emma…..It is my second year to reflect upon what it means to be
Emma’s mom…
I am truly blessed to be Emma’s mom. This is a ‘job’ that I do not take
lightly. I work so hard to try to
learn how to best care for my sweet little girl. I am constantly learning how to help her grow and
develop. We enjoy our time
together and I live for that sweet smile that keeps me going.
I have had an AMAZING Mother’s Day. Scott went above and beyond to make me
feel extra special today. It
started with a great freshly brewed cup of coffee and a gorgeous and yummy
Edible Arrangement. Scott and Emma
showered me with sweet cards and presents. Then Scott made an absolutely delicious lunch consisting of
steak with blue cheese, strawberry salad, guacamole Mexicana, and a chocolate
raspberry torte. I defiantly
blew my diet today and DID NOT CARE!
After lunch, we took a 2hour family nap. It was a very good day.
As many of you know, we had to take Emma to the hospital for
a few day stay. Emma has
apparently caught a virus that has made her oxygen levels off. So, we are home again which is good,
but Emma is more snotty today and a little TMI her snot is getting more
yellow. We are watching her
closely and have her on constant oxygen until this passes.
We appreciate the prayers for our sweet little Princess as
she battles this virus. It is
amazing how much a virus can effect her entire body.
God is Good! All the Time!
Here is a little video I put together to take a look back at my Motherhood Journey. The Martina McBride song I used has been exceptionally meaningful lately. Enjoy:
