As this day came to an end I reflected on how blessed I am. I have my mom and her mom to help me become the best mom I can possibly be. I have all four of my children here with me (almost two years ago I was told we had about a month before we could have lost Dillan by the ER doctor). I have a husband that loves me unconditionally and is an amazing partner in life. My heart and prayers go out to my friends that are traveling this road alone. I pray for those who have moms in heaven that today you felt their embrace throughout the day. I pray for those who have experienced the loss of a child that today you feel their unconditional love throughout the day. My day was special not because I was showered with gifts or because my children were angels (they were actually worse than usual today), it was special because I chose to focus on the blessings God gives me every day...
I am blessed with a teenager that hugs his great-grandmother and gives her a kiss on the cheek at every family gathering.
I am blessed with a preteen that is with me daily as a living example of God's amazing miracles and a testimony of His love.
I am blessed with a young curious boy that has a precious and sometimes mischievous personality and is very loving to all of us.
I am blessed with a daughter who is very sure of herself. Her confidence at five years old is mind boggling.

My blessings, when I remember to focus on them, are overflowing. I am thankful and grateful He chose me to have this life and be mom to Chandler, Dillan, Ethan and Isabelle.
Happy Mother's Day everyone!
