This Sunday is Mother's Day! Every day I celebrate my mom, in thoughts,reflections and sincere gratitude. When I became a mother I was just a young girl, so naive of the reality of raising a child. I remember leaving the hospital and turning to my husband and saying " really she ours we go home, is the hospital crazy, I am not ready!" and then the fun began, I stared at this little miracle called life, her movements, her yawns and little wiggles and smirks. I would awake to feed, change her diapers and YES, check if she was still breathing.  Looking back I know I've made some mistakes along the way,  Like getting that candy in the super market so my girls would just stop crying, or giving in to that soda at family parties, but overall I think I did OK! I also became aware that WOW, my mom is the BEST! I cannot express the gratitude and love for my mom. How did she do it, always putting us first, never seeming too tired to make dinner, do our laundry and listen to every ridiculous story of ours? Every day I feel blessed to have her with me; so as a mother’s day tribute I thought I would feature some of our mommy photos and give thanks’ to sharing your precious mommy moments with us!
