Mother's Day






I think back to a year ago when we had met Alex but could not get the information of what paperwork would be required to bring him home. It was so frustrating and the emptiness that was there due to having a child that you had met and fell in love with and yet not being able to bring him home was unbearable.
But....We are home and all that is in the past and what a Mother's Day!!!! It was so much fun just being able to relax and enjoy! We had gone to dinner the night before and Alex was actually comfortable sitting at the restaurant and eating dinner! That is a major accomplishment. We usually have about 5 trips to the bathroom and up and down all over the place and after He is finished eating he is ready to jump down and run outside. So to have a calm and enjoyable dinner out was nice!
We then enjoyed the day at home and had a wonderful BBQ........Dad and Adam had gone out and brought home flowers and steaks and even desert!!!!We had a wonderful day. We ended it by going for a nice walk and just relaxing!!!!!!
Mother's Day used to be the hardest day for me. When I couldn't have children, it was a very difficult day. I feel so blessed by getting the opportunity to be a Mom to two wonderful boys!!!!
My heart still goes out to those who have tried and have not been able to experience the joys of motherhood.....There will always be a soft spot in my heart for all those ladies!!!!!
