Mother's Day

This year I got to celebrate Mother's Day.  Although I've been a "Mom" technically for 3 years to an angel baby I never ever celebrated a day where all it ever did was remind me of what I yearned for and didn't have.  This year was different.  It was the first year I didn't cry.  It was the first year where I felt no anxiety about becoming a mom.  Instead I was showered with lots of hugs and kisses from my girls and Matt spoiled me with Dimple's Donuts (our favorite donut shop in Naperville) and a starbuck's latte.  I also got a little bouquet of flowers from the little neighbor girl down the street.  Although it's technically just a "hallmark" holiday Mother's Day can be such a hard day reminding so many women what they don't have.
