Mother's Day 2010

Mother's Day... another sad, but happy day!

I should have counted the number of times I heard "Happy Mother's Day" this weekend. You never think about it until it stings!!!

In 2007, I became a mother when we "conceived" by IVF. We were excited to become parents and with twins - scared, but very happy!!! Our dreams were finally coming true. It was OUR turn for a change! April 2008, we got to see our boys for the first and last time. Mother's Day comes and goes. No "celebration" for mother's with children in Heaven... we should have our own holiday!!! But, my celebrating will be in Heaven with my boys!!!

Sunday morning, Cary and Nic (nephew) woke me up to a very special "thinking of you" card! I couldn't help but cry when I saw it! It made me happy that these two special men in my life thought of me today! They picked out a "special" gift for me. What do you get a mom without children here with her? An iTunes gift card! Cary told me Nic picked the card out, he wanted to get one for 739 dollars, but settled on $25 instead. What a special nephew I have!!!

All in all, Mother's Day was nice! A day of church, lunch and Norah Jones!!!

I thank God everyday for my mom and mother-in-law. They both show so much love for my family and I couldn't ask for better mom's!!!
