I know it's just a day

It's just one day of the whole year. A Sunday. I am a mom 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. But I still like this one day. I wasn't the little girl that always dreamed of being a mother. In my teenage years I thought perhaps I wouldn't even have children. Had I not married Josh, perhaps I wouldn't have.

But 21.5 months ago, I became one. A mother. Suddenly, a role I thought maybe I would never have, became my most important one. Yes, I love being married and being a wife. I enjoy my job, which is more than many can say. I think being a sister and a daughter and a cousin makes my life complete. But I would be empty if I was not a Mother.

I love being a mom every single day. I love being Heidi's mom, especially. And I love Mother's Day because it's a way for the whole world to recognize that the moment I became a mom changed my life forever.







Mother's Day is more than just one day.
