Mother's Day

No matter where this life is leading me, I have been blessed beyond measure by my two children. They are my world and I adore them so completely. Amidst all the anger and resentment I feel for my (ex)spouse, I should feel thankful. After all, had it not been for him I wouldn't have the two beautiful creatures that I can call my own.

So, tomorrow is Mother's Day. And I am thankful that God saw in His infinite wisdom that it was good for me to be with my (ex)spouse for a time. For in that time my daughter and son came to be...and I wouldn't trade that for the world! 

I am also thankful for my own mother who has been an amazing rock throughout this divorce. 

Finally, I am thankful always for the Blessed Virgin, who is an example for all mothers everywhere. If God were to grant me 1/10 of her grace, humility and faith, I would most certainly be an amazing woman!

Happy Mother's Day to all of the moms out there.
