Happy Mother’s Day ~Celebrating Love

Happy Mother’s Day!

What an excellent day to celebrate the essence of love.
There was no doubt in my mind that I wanted to be a mother. And when the time came to fulfill that desire I prepared for Rebekah’s arrival in every way I knew how and if I didn’t know something, I researched and studied it like it was an exam. But no matter how much I had studied, nothing could fully prepare me for the life of being a mom and all the turns each experience would create.

No matter what circumstances take place in our lives we still carry the title mom. There have been many moments when I felt I didn’t deserve that title. Moments that I didn’t handle a situation as I should have, moments I just didn’t know what to say or do, moments that my personal life overrode my better judgement. I have definitely had moments of shameful regret.


But that being said, being a mom is a choice we have whether we planned to be one or not. A choice to learn what love is in ways that we are not always prepared for. Ways that are sometimes confusing, frustrating, and scary. But it is that word love, in the end, that sees us through. It is the love we find that lives deep within the core of our being; It is the love we’re born with and we have the courage and capability to allow it to shine through in all that life presents simply by being a MOM ♡ CHEERS to all moms everywhere. May you embrace the love that lives in you and shine it brightly today and every day!

Live Well~ xo
