Mothers Day is such a special day for me now that I'm a mom. Even though it's a day to honor Mother's, the past few years it has meant more to me than just being grateful for such a wonderful Mom. Clay and I tryed to start a family five years before it actually happened. During this time I would absolutely DREAD Mother's Day for obvious reasons. I wanted so desprately to BE a mother. It was literally a day of mourning for me. I remember the Mother's day I was pregnant with the twins I made Clay get me a gift because it was so wonderful to finally be able to celebrate the fact that I was to be a mom! It was the first time I cried tears of joy all Mother's day instead of tears of despair and hopelessness. I was so excited to strive to be the kind of Mother that my Mother had been to me and rise to the challenge that I had heard so much about. Anyway, every Mother's day since then has been Bliss. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have my three little angels with me here on earth. Someday's I get swallowed up in the routine and I forget how I wanted so much to have this life of selflessnes and love.
Yesterday as I watched my little ones I was reminded of this.
I'm so very blessed.

It does make you feel really blessed, doesn't it? I think it's the best job in the world.
You are such a great mother, Kristen. I love watching you with your little angels. They are such good kids...definitely taught well by their mother.
You're children are adorable and so sweet. Just like their mommy. It's been fun getting to know you!
I still remember when you found out you were pregnant!! I think I cried too. :-) You're such a wonderful mom and friend!! You're definetly someone who is aware of all your blessings.
You are a wonderful mother and I love watching you teach your beautiful children. It's fun watching them imitate the things you do, because they love you so very much. I'm so blessed to be your mom and love spending time with you and your family.
