Motherhood Wanderings…
The approaching Mother’s Day holiday leaves me not only emotional about the awesome privilege of becoming a mother to these four boys, but an overwhelming gratitude for my own mother’s love.

Our journey to motherhood was a bumpy one, and my heart aches for those who would rather hide under the covers than face another year without a baby to hold in your arms. Others of you are without your mother on this holiday, and I cannot imagine how hard that must be to muster your way through such grief. Some of you have experienced the loss of a child. You are not forgotten – and my prayers and many others are with all of you today.
