My first Mother's Day


I’ve been mothering for two years now and today was my first Mother’s Day.  Bella joined our family early June and she left us the day before Mother’s Day last year.  We picked up Emma two weeks later.  So today was my first Mother's Day with my little ones in my arms.

I attempted to savor the moments today, to cherish, as Mark calls it.  So, when I stopped and thought of my journey to motherhood, and how long I’ve waited to celebrate Mother’s Day, and how full of joy my little girls make me, I was filled to the brim with emotion and tears quickly surfaced. 

Today was a beautiful day, spent in a beautiful place, with two beautiful little ladies, and a handsome stud of a photographer!
