I was just sitting here thinking about all the things I want to do...there are so many things I want to be in this life. However, I can remember being a little girl and knowing that one day I would be a mother.
Then, when Marcus was born, there wasn't a big life-changing jolt or shift like I had heard about and expected. Life just happened, he was here; I was a mom. Becoming a mom happened when I was young; all of my adult life I have been a mother.
I think about how blessed I am to have had 3 healthy pregnancies, 3 natural births with no complications, and 3 beautiful, healthy babies. I was so lucky. I was blessed. Then, to top it all off - to find out about Charlee and to be chosen as HER mother - it's almost enough to make my heart burst. Sometimes I just sit and think - Wow, I'm a mom! I am a mom...I am a mom...I am a MOM!
