Mother’s Day!

Yesterday was my first mother’s day. It was such a special day. Stephen gave me a digital picture frame. It is so cool! It does slide shows of still pictures, plays videos, and music. I am going to put it on my desk next year so I can see little Mitchell while I am at work. Stephen made me a Mother’s Day slide show to the song “My Mother” from The Chipmunk Adventure (one of my favorite movies). It had all of Mitchell’s sonogram pictures, which of course made me cry. I just can’t believe how different Mother’s Day was this year from last. I had a miscarriage a few weeks before Mother’s Day last year and was on fertility drugs. Praise God for his blessings and his unfailing love! I was also able to spend the entire day with my mother. I am so blessed to have her in my life! She is the ultimate role model. I hope I can be half as great of a mom as she has been for Maggie and me! I hope one day Mitchell will think of me the way I think of my mom.

Time line to Mitchell!

Whenever I am anxious and ready for something to happen I always make up a time line of events that will help me get through the waiting period. Here is my time line until Mitchell is born. In between these dates you will be able to find me in my mom's pool or under a fan somewhere trying to stay cool.
