My very FIRST Mother's Day!

“Not flesh of my flesh, nor bone of my bone,

but still miraculously my own.

Never forget for a single minute,

you didn’t grow under my heart, but in it.”

– Unknown
 
How lucky am I to have such a beautiful, funny, smart and amazing daughter?  How lucky am I to have a loving, nurturing, kind and wonderful husband?  Combine the two and I feel like the luckiest Mum and wife around!  I had the most lovely 1st Mother's Day which was filled with lots of cuddles and kisses with Juniper.  David and Junebug went out and picked me up a snicker doodle iced coffee, a bagel and a beautiful bunch of flowers.  We went for a long walk to the park and Juniper had fun on the swings, slide and tried climbing.  We ended a day with a trip to the mall where I had the chance to buy my little Bug some clothes from Crazy 8.  Nothing makes me happier than spoiling my little girl. 
 
Being a Mum means the world to me, I love every part of it.  I especially love the massive smile she greets me with when I come home from work followed by a loud squeal of delight.  I love the kisses she gives me, the big cuddles, I love that she reaches for me when she is sad.  I may worry about her day and night but I love her more than life itself and being her Mum has completed my family.  I have never been happier, the only piece that is missing is my Mother getting the opportunity to see me as a Mum.  My heart ached a little less this Mother's Day.
