Mother's Day

Mother's Day has always been special for me.  I always looked forward to the day I would become a mother. I remember Mother's day 2000.  We had been married for a few years and frankly I was feeling very sorry for myself.  All the mothers were standing up saying how many children they had. From my seat at the piano, I had an excellent view of the congregation.  I saw an older couple who was childless.  the man was a little teary eyed.  I don't know if it was from memories of his own mother or sadness over his wife not having children.  I quickly looked away.  But across the isle was another older couple, also childless.  He was in the same state.  Ugh!


The Lord dealt with me right then and there.  Here I was wallowing in self pity and I was young with lots of time yet. My heart attitude changed.  And little did I know that I was already pregnant.


This year for Mother's Day, Cameron surprised me with a bird feeder! 

Perfect view from the kitchen window!
