Twenty one years ago I became a mother, my daughter was placed in my arms and I finally knew why I was here. Holding this sweet child in my arms my heart, could have exploded, I never thought I could experience love like this but it only multiplied with each child.
My babies will always be my babies their ages are irrelevant in this, 21 or 3 they are my heart.
Motherhood came so natural, not saying that I didn’t and don’t feel like I mess it up at times. I honestly didn’t believe I would survive the teenage years. But I am so proud of each and everyone of them.
It is rather strange having a 21 year old and a 3 year old but I’m loving being back in the midst of toddlerhood.
My babies bring me so much joy but they have also challenged and taught me more than I could have ever imagined.
My work is testimony to all that they have taught me. I know get now to love on those children who need it. My babies being extended through fostering and now adoption.
How amazing is this!
This is exactly what we are doing – isn’t it the most wonderful (and exhausting) journey!
