Mother's Day

Mother's Day to me is a little more special. I lost my mother to cancer when I was 7 years old. So really I grew up without a mother. I missed out on a lot of things. Because of my loss, I realize and value those little things a little more than most and it has made me a better mother. Also I realize how blessed I am to be here for Shane.


I just wanted to take a moment to wish all you mothers a Happy Mother's Day



Isn't this the truth

Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs… since the payment is pure love. – Mildred B. Vermont

“Making a decision to have a child–it’s momentous. It is to decide
forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.”
