I know now it's two days past Mother's Day but I still wanted to write about it. I am sitting here with my son sound asleep on my chest. He just was fed and burped and rocked to sleep. He has smiled at least twice in his sleep already. The cutest big squeezable cheeks and cutest dimples. I am so blessed by Heavenly Father it's hard to even fully express. While the week before was not the best I am grateful for time with loved ones. My great gram passed away at the age of 97. Born in 1918 this woman has seen so much history in her time. The final piece on the cake I feel like was meeting my little one when he was just three days old. 5 generations! I was able to be with her before she passed away and advocated for her care. She was a beautiful woman,mother,grandmother and person. I am lucky to have the memory of Seth meeting her.
My mother is a beautiful woman as well. Inside and out. She was there for me when I was grieving and when I had to make tough decisions regarding my gram. She is there for me with my son and was there( and delivered Mathhew,our angel son) She worked 2 sometimes 3 jobs at a time to give us kids what we needed. She sacrificed so much for us and I would gladly do the same for my son now.
They say once you have a child you learn what true unconditional love is. This is also the type of love we have from Heavenly Father. Which I am so grateful for. He taught us this example first and lets us feel it when we have our own children. I love unconditionally now and it's the best feeling in the world.
