Mother's Day

It is 8:48pm.

It is Mother's Day.

I did okay today.

I had a few fits of anger today, and a few tears...

But overall, I held it together.

Things may have been different if I hadn't found out about this giant sunflower maze.

It was nice to be surrounded by one of my little reminders of Elijah.

Here are just a few pics from today.

I don't think we would have had to pay for Elijahs admission today and he probably couldn't have ridden a pony yet....but because he couldn't be there in person today, I wanted to give his spot to someone else... So as our act of kindness today in memory of Elijah, we payed for a sweet little boy to get in and have a pony ride too! I hope he had some fun!!!

Big hugs to all of you who are hurting today.

Please know you are on my heart and in my prayers...

And I truly believe if you have ever carried a child in your heart, your tummy, or in your arms...

then you have been blessed with the gift of motherhood and deserve to hear Happy Mother's Day!

Tomorrow we open our Art Therapy Studio!

Tomorrow I also start a 6am fitness class :o

Say some prayers for both of these things...lol

Prayers for all of you.

Always pray for my Elijah.

Oh sweet boy. I have missed you today, but I had some peace knowing you were near. Today was the first time I have ever had a butterfly land on my shoulder...was that you? I would love to think it was your little mother's day visit ;)

To be your mother is an amazing gift Elijah, and one I would never ever trade. Even through all the hard times. Even through our loss. Through it all I have loved you. And I would go through it all again if it meant I got to hold you one more time.

I miss and love you my boogie...always.
