Stacey’s Mom Has Got It Goin On
So, it’s Mother’s Day this weekend. It’s kinda weird for me. I have a son, I call him my son, I love him deeply. But, I don’t really feel like a Mom. I don’t have the gear, the spit up on my shirt, the bags under my eyes… I’m still just me. And thats weird.
Whats interesting to me is that already I have been celebrated as a mom more than I would have expected. I mean, its just been a few e-cards, and a couple of well wishes from coworkers, but still. I wasn’t expecting anything, really.
I think I would like to take some time this Mother’s Day and honor AJ’s birth mom and foster mom. Perhaps I’ll pick up a plant in their honor and plant it with my mom. I would like to do something that could continue to be a tradition each year. We’ll see what I come up with…
Happy Mother’s Day to all my friends who became moms this past year. You are all really inspiring to me. And of course to all the moms that have been moms for ages! You’re the best!
