I'm a Mommy. And I love being one. It was the greatest gift that God ever, ever, ever blessed me with. I am really, truly, blessed to have my precious son. He is my life.
When he was born, which was around, ironically enough, "El Nino". I knew God had diffiently had his hand in this. My life before him was like everything was in black and white. They placed this tiny, little bundle in my arms and all the world lit up with color.
I thought I would melt the first time I heard him call me Mama.
He was so small and so beautiful to me. I was so scared to bring him home from the hospital. I wasn't sure I knew what to do. But it came easily and I learned.
I love being his Mother. I refer to myself as "Justin's Mom", for example when I leave a message for his teachers on their voice mail, I just say this is "Justin's Mom". I adore my son and I love, love, love being his Mother.
Now he's 10. I see him growing up so fast. But he has been a really wonderful child to experience and love. I tell him that God gave me the most special angel he had. I truly believe he did. My son hates to hear me say this, because I start to cry when I say it to him. I wonder what he thinks.
Now I'm starting work full time, different hours, the weekend days are not consecutive. This is hard on my son, I hear it in his voice. It makes me sad. He really is trying to adjust, I can hear it in his voice. He is not one to complain, even when he is hurting, like now. In fact, he is very supportive. I know that he has this amazing heart.
I am only hoping to do this until December, then I will go part time. Right now, I just need to get some medical insurance. So that will happen in September, by December, I want to go part time.
Well, have a great Mother's Day. Thanks for listening. God bless.
