i am a mother.

last may, the day before mother’s day, i took a home pregnancy test in the bathroom. it wouldn’t be until the following monday that i’d know “officially” that i was pregnant, but still. i knew. and husband and i? we were sort of over the moon.
all my life, i have dreamed of being a mother. these last three months have often felt so surreal. i have loved every minute of it, even the minutes where i am tired and cranky and little eleanor is fussy. sometimes i am nervous i am tampering with sweet baby girl’s spirit, because she is so special and i still have so much to learn. but i thank my father in heaven every single day for giving me this chance and entrusting her to me.
happy mother’s day to all of you mothers in the world, to all of you women who play a motherly part in someone’s life, to those of you who wish to be mothers and aren’t just yet, to the mother who raised my handsome husband, and to my own beautiful mother, who i love so very much. happy happy mother’s day to you!
