Thank you so much for truly putting it all in perspective...especially b/c I was one of those disappointed moms

Re: My reflections on this mother's day, a reminder to us all but especially for those who were disappointed today...
Thanks for reminding us all to enjoy the small things! This is my first mother's day as a mom and that it itself is a gift! This time 18 years ago I was ten and it was my mom's last mother's day.
Like you, I am not sure what we did that day, but what I do know now is how much my mom loved me. I never doubted that she loved me, but now I feel how much she loved me.
And like you I struggled with IF and it was only through IVF that I am a mom today. When I was a child I prayed each night to see my mommy again. Then while trying to get PG I prayed each night to be a mommy. I now pray to remember each day what a precious gift it is to be a mommy.
Happy Mother's Day to all!

Re: My reflections on this mother's day, a reminder to us all but especially for those who were disappointed today...
I completely agree!!! So many women would love to be as "sad" as we are at times - even if we forget that from time to time. as hard as it is, just a visit to the TTC/Infertility boards makes me realize that there are many who would trade places with us in a heartbeat...
Thank you for sharing this!!!

I then looked at that Cheerio and smiled thinking of how it got there... falling out of one of the four little hands that are so precious to me.
Every moment counts and every part of motherhood is a blessing. Sometimes we all just have to remind ourselves of that
That was a sweet post, Theresa. Thanks for reminding us of the precious moments in life and to not take anything for granted.
God bless your mom. Im sure she's watching over you and your precious ltitle ones.

Wow! How beautiful. Thank you for putting it all in perspective.
For my family- we are very casual about these sort of things. We went to my mom's- and her house was a wreck (thanks to my DD). She didn't get food and my DH and I ran to the bagel store. There was nothing formal. We were just all together.
My greatest gift is my DD. I am a mother!!  I am so blessed- what more could I want???

Theresa, you said everything I thought but didn't know how to put into words. Beautifully put, and as usual, inspiring. Thank you
P.S. It's obvious to me, even though your mom's time with you was shortened, she did an amazing, AMAZING job with the short amount of time she did have, and THAT is the greatest inspiration of all
