“We prayed for this child and the Lord has granted us what we asked of Him.” – I Samuel 1:27
I could stare at Calan all day. This little blessing is so amazing to me and to be his mother means the world to to me. There was a brief moment in time that Bob and I were faced with the prospect that we would never have children. Doctors warned us right away that once I started chemotherapy that I could go into menopause making it almost impossible to have children. Bob and I even met with a fertility specialist before I started, but we decided to trust the Lord and our doctors and pray that not only would I get healthy, but that one day we would be blessed with children. We are incredibly blessed.
This year has been amazing. Calan is amazing. Being a mother is amazing.
I love all of our quiet moments together. I love all of his laughter and smiles. I love watching him discover something new. I love how he looks for me for security and love and support. I relish in his joy.
Like any mother, putting my love into words truly does not give it justice. Only God knows the depth of love. It truly is endless.
This Mother's Day will probably be spent just enjoying my family. There is no where else I'd rather be.
