I’m often torn about how to celebrate Mother’s Day. Many of the happiest times in my life revolved around being a mother to my two girls.
Yet, for thirty-six years there is a part of me that grieves on Mother’s Day for the daughter I lost.
But, God is good! He sent two beautiful children to my older daughter, Mandy and the three of them just rock my world. I feel like I am the luckiest!
Life is funny you know. I thought that my life was over thirty-six years ago, and now I feel like I am on the grandest trip of all, along with Mandy and her family!
I see the world in a whole new way. Through the eyes of my grandchildren.
Although my love will never end for Katie, and I shall never forget her or the way she was when she was alive and in our lives, I have been able to move forward and live again myself.
So on this Mother’s Day, I celebrate my own motherhood, but more than this, I celebrate my daughter’s Mother’s Day.
Mandy is a wonderful, caring, and gentle mother. She listens to her kids and adores them and I admire her so very much!
So, Happy Mother’s Day to all you mothers. Be you biological, adoptive, or step. Mothers and their love come in all shapes and sizes.
Happy Mothers day
It is a wonderful thing to watch our daughters mother their children. I know the day is bittersweet and am glad you can find joy in your adorable grands.
