I want to start off by saying that I absolutely LOVE being a mother. There is nothing in my life that is more rewarding than watching my children grow. But i will not get to watch ALL of my children grow. There are 7 lives that I celebrate on Mother's Day. 4 lives that were lost before their first breaths were ever taken. Carried for such a short time within me. Never in my arms.. FOREVER IN MY HEART. And the lives of the 3 children I gave birth to. I know mothers day is a day people use to celebrate their mothers... but since i became a mother, It has transformed into a day for me to celebrate my children. Maybe they should have a Childrens Day. They deserve a day just for them, too.


Hearing their laughter in the other room, or seeing their faces light up when I come in from a trip to the store... I know that nothing I do will ever cause their love for me to faulter . A mothers love for her child is unconditional. But I would have to say that a childs love for his mother is Also unconditional. And I thank God for that! because Heaven knows that ive given my children a million reasons to hate me.
