{A Mother's Love}

This was the best Mother's Day yet! Kaya was so adorable all day long. She got to sing in the Primary program Sunday morning (although, we practiced the wrong song all week, and she 'whispered' on stage...'MOM, I DON'T KNOW THE WORDS TO THIS SONG!' ) She drew me a picture and made a frame to put the picture in... she hid it behind her back and made me guess what it was... I guessed all the logical guesses first... a puppy, a new car, a boyfriend... she giggled through each and every guess... until finally she pulled out her little picture and frame and showed me every detail of how it was made.

Kaya is the sweetest little girl in the world. I am so thankful to her for making me a Mommy. Being Kaya's Mama has given me meaning and purpose in this world. She gives me reasons to be better and try harder. She unknowingly pushes me to do things I never could have done on my own. She has taught me more lessons on love, kindness, patience and forgiveness than any other person could have ever taught me. She is wise beyond her years. She is my little angel... my daughter... my friend... Thank you for choosing me Kaya, to be your Mommy! It is the greatest blessing of my life!!

I would also like to thank my own Mother for teaching me the epitome of Motherhood. She is the most amazing, selfless woman I know. My Mom has always been there for me.. weather it be a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on or a place to live when life got too rough. My Mother has always been there to pick me up when I had no one else.. She is my best friend, and my confidant... my example. I appreciate all that you do for me Mom.. thank you for always being there for me, and for teaching me how a Mom is suppose to be. You have taught me to love unconditionally, turn to God in my time of need and to let the unimportant things roll off my back... thank you for being you, Mama!! I love you and look up to you more than I could ever express! xoxo
