I am so thankful for each & every mother in my life! My mom, step-mom, & mother-in-law, as well as grandmothers, all have special places in my heart! I am thankful for all that they do for me.
Today is kind of bittersweet for me. I am closer to being a mother this year than I ever have been, but it still seems so far away. Will I ever get to become a mother? In my mind if feels like I will not ever be one. Yet, we are waiting for our referral of our child so eventually I will right? Part of what makes this mother's day so hard is that my baby is somewhere on the other side of the world & I can't have them home here with me. There are no definite timelines with adoption either. So at times it feels like our wait will continue on forever. :(
It's hard not having anyone close to me understand how I feel. I'm thankful for my blogger friends! It's good to know that I'm not completely alone in this journey. **I know that I'm not completely alone...God is ALWAYS right by my side, sometimes I just don't realize it.
I'm thankful for my family & close friends as well though! Family & friends, thank you so much for the encouragement & support that I receive from you all. I love you all!
Not trying to be so gloomy today, but this is how I feel today. This doesn't change the fact that I am truly grateful for my momma!

I completely understand how you feel, Heather. This year was easier knowing that there is light at the end of this tunnel but it was difficult because the light still looks so small. This adoption process seems so dream-like and I'm still not convinced I'm going to get a baby at the end of this. I think I'll probably keep pinching myself when it does happen. I know the wait will be worth it all but it's hard not to get discouraged. Hang in there, girl! It's going to happen for both of us and next year's Mother's Day will be WONDERFUL!!!!
