Mother's Day

My first Mother's Day as a mother.

I've always wondered what it is like to be on the receiving end of this holiday. It is neat to now have this day have much more meaning-it has always been about my mother, but last year it expanded to include my mother-in-law, and now me.

It was a neat day full of kind words, a gracious husband, and some serious sugar (someone knows mothers well! ;) ).

But my favorite part of the day was alone in the Mother's Room, staring down in wonder at the sleeping miracle that made me a mom.
