Mother's Day





I had a lovely day with you.  You and daddy made me french toast with fruit.  We went to church and had a great meal at a local seafood place.

Liliah, I love being your mama.  You have brought such joy and clarity to my life.  I have grown so much by being a mother to you.  I had to wait a long time for you, but it was so worth it.  I'd do it all over again to have the chance to love you.


Our relationship has blossomed and we have truly connected. 
















































We know and love each other as though we have always been together.
