Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. ~Elizabeth Stone
On this eve of Mother's Day I am reminded of the blessings I have received because I am blessed to be my children's mother. I know that tomorrow will bring wishes for the day and notes of gratitude. But if I were to be honest, really honest, I would have to admit that it is me that has benefited from the relationship that I have with Jason and Jessica. My remarkable children have truly taught me what it means to be alive in the moment. To take each day as it comes and to "work on what we have, not what we are missing." For that I am grateful. I must admit, because I have had the honor of being their mother, I have been changed for good.
