Being a Mother is a Beautiful Thing

Mother's Day

May 8, 2011

My Mother's Day was full of this sweet little thing! We got to spend the whole day together after church. One of my favorite things about being a mother is singing to her, with her, and listening to her sing by herself. I was pleased when she took a liking to the song, "You are my Sunshine" because that was one of my favorites when I was a little girl and it has a whole new meaning now when I get to look into her eyes and sing the words. As she learns more and more every day, I become more and more pleased with who she is becoming! She is genuine and she teaches me things that I didn't realize I needed teaching of. My heart swells when I hear her little words come out so perfectly, "I'm trying mommy." or "Please help me." or "I DID it!" or "I love you." or "Come 'ere Mom.", "Play with me", "Dance togetter?", I will never tire of listening to her.

Lydia,

Thank you for making me a mom. I'm so glad that I'm yours.

"You are my sunshine. My only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. You'll never know dear, HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU! Please, don't take my sunshine away."
