Blessed.

Mother's Day took on a whole new meaning this year.

I never quite understood how much I was capable of loving another human being until this girl came into our lives.  She is truly the best thing that ever happened to me.

I had a fabulous first mother's day.  I got to spend it with my own marm and my sweet aunt maggie.  Ben spoiled us all day.. Breakfast from Ike and Jane, hot stone pedicures from urban sanctuary, steaks on the grill for dinner.  It was relaxing and fun and perfect.  

I couldn't be more grateful for my mom.  Not just this week when she dropped everything and flew down to Georgia as soon as I said "I need you".  She has truly done that for me my whole life.  Those 3 words are all it takes.  She is the most selfless woman I know and I am so grateful and so blessed.  How lucky am I that this is my model of motherhood?  I can only pray I can be to Kate what she is to me.  

I am one blessed gal.  Grateful for my mom, my mother-in-law (love ya tee-tah, cant wait to celebrate you next weekend) and all my other "second moms"

Oh, and I am beyond blessed and grateful to be this gal's mama.

Happy Mother's Day 2014
