Mother's Day

Hello all and welcome to my world!
It seemed appropriate to start a blog today, since this blog will most often focus on my life with the beautiful little girl that made me a mother.
Jocelyn is now 2 years and 3 months old. The time has flown by, and yet, we have thoroughly lived every moment of every day together, her and I. And I wouldn't trade one of those moments for anything in the world.
As I kiss her good night tonight, and later look in on her as she sleeps, I will thank her again, as I often do, for the privilege of being her Mommy.

For those of you that are honored to be someone's Mommy, here is a little poem I found this morning:

A – Z: For My Children on Mother’s Day
A is for Awe, when they placed you on my chest
B is for Birth and for Bottles and Breasts
C is for Colic and Car Seats and Crawling
D is for Discipline, Diapers and Drawing
E is for Ear Infections, Lord knows we had those
F is for Father and a Family that grows
G is for Genetics and Giggles and Go
H is for Hugs and the Home we love so
I is Imagination and that darn Ice Cream truck
J is for Juice and Jelly and Junk
K is for Kindergarten, bringing tears to my eyes
L is for Listen and Little, White Lies
M is for Mom and Maternity Clothes
N is for Naps and your cute button Nose
O is for Ovaries, Outdoors and Obsessed
P is Potty Training, Pizza and Pets
Q is my voice saying Quickly! or Quiet!
R is Rashes and Reading and Riot
S is your Safety, which is what matters most
T is for Temper Tantrum, Timeout and Toast
U is Unruly and Ugly at times
V is Vaccinations (there are no other rhymes)
W is Whining and Water and Weather
X marks the spot where you bury the treasure
Y is for You, no matter your age
Z is for Zero things that I'd ever change
Just being your Mother, is an incredible gift
When my morale is down, you give it a lift
With a touch or a hug or the sound of your voice
I know that Motherhood was my greatest choice.
My marriage to your Daddy, made me a Wife
But when you were born…YOU gave ME life.
