Snuggled and Safe

This year we celebrated Mother's Day with a little brunch at Brian's Mom's house, honoring all those special Momma's out there!

I love this moment with Kate.  Snuggled and safe with Mama.

Brian and Kate also embarked on a super cute framed piece of art that means more to me than any store bought item:

My love!

Over the last 19 months of being a Mom, I have learned more about myself and gained more confidence than I have in the last 19 years of my life.  Being a Mom has brought out the inner spirit in me and has made me see life in a completely new way.  It has been amazing, inspiring, thought provoking, frightening.  You name the emotion and I've experienced it on this Motherhood ride.  Above all, being a Mom has been so absolutely rewarding.  My words would not do my feelings justice if I tried to explain how truly blessed I feel to be a Mom, Kate's Mom.  But that is just it.  I feel blessed.  Completely and totally blessed.

I know I still have a lot to learn on my journey and I am looking forward to it.  As much as I want my baby to stay my baby, I am looking forward to our next adventures as a family.  Potty training, talking, real tantrums, opinions - they are all on the horizon.  I know with each new parenting phase come new parenting challenges, but I am completely up for them!  I say BRING IT ON!  And I am excited to see where our journey leads us!

Being a Mom has been the best thing that has ever happened to me.  I wouldn't trade this title for anything in the world!
