It isn't flowers or cards or dinner or hand made crafts that matter today. The best gift on Mother's Day is the gift of being a mom. I guess I was feeling a little sorry for myself hearing about other moms getting gushed over today. Then a feeling of joy came over me as I watched my little baby girl ripping apart the TV guide...I'm a mom. That's the greatest gift today and every day.
I have wanted to be a mom for as long as I can remember. I have friends who haven't been able to have children and that breaks my heart. I am blessed with three beautiful, wonderful, healthy, happy children. I get to spend my days with them. Sure, some times it feels more like a burden than a blessing but mostly it feels like the best gift of all.
Happy Mother's Day to all the lucky ladies like me.
