Becoming a Mom





We found out we were expecting a baby in mid September 2006. From the instant that the EPT test showed the "pregnant" sign, I felt that I was given the greatest gift, the gift of being a mom. I really had no idea how much I could love someone until Logan was born May 15, 2007. I mean I really love my husband, I would give my life for him, but to a love a child - its unconditional. This is my second Mother's Day. Last Mother's Day, I had one baby and was expecting another. There is a lot of things people don't tell you when you are expecting a baby. However the one thing that everyone will tell you is how much your life will change and how quickly time goes. Our life has changed. We have more love and laughter in our lives. Yes we are tired, but I don't want my old life. I love this life and time is going by too quickly. The greatest gift I will receive tomorrow will be the kisses and hugs and I Love Yous from Logan and the sweet giggles and squeals of delight from Austin. Mom, thank you for the life you gave me. It is fun to celebrate each other on Mother's day. I celebrate you because you are my mom and now that I am a mom I know you are celebrating your children for making you a mom! Thank you Brian for our babies! Having children with you was the best thing I have ever done! Thank you God for my babies. Thank you Logan and Austin for choosing me to be your mommy.
