I used to be a wreck on Mothers' Day. Thankfully, we received our miracle 5 years ago and I'm so gratfeul to be a mommy. However, our 2nd time around with infertility has been longer and no less painful. Throughout our 6-year struggle I'm so thankful that I have this reminder: when I finally held my son I knew that I wouldn't change a thing about our journey to conceive him. I hope that encourages those of you out there who are encountering the ultimate unmet desire. I'm so thankful that although I avoid baby showers and baptisms, I can now face mothers' day. And oh how I cherish every moment with my long-awaited sweet child!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323297981944211492.post-21391020783189122852011-05-18T09:48:04.290-04:002011-05-18T09:48:04.290-04:00Posts like this are exactly why I come back here. ...Posts like this are exactly why I come back here.

The Mother's Days between losing our son, Michael, and adopting Noah were terribly hard. Thank you for acknowledging that.

Live for him, obedient to HIS word and one day he'll dry all your tears, wipe away your sorrows. <br /><br />I long for the time I can see my sweet one gone on before me...gone on before we had a chance to become aquainted. <br /><br />Though since then God offered me a solace for my wounded heart and gave me a blessing beyond measure in the form of a beautiful girl who is sweet and endearing, but challenging. She forces me to grow in ways I never imagined.
