What is the best part of being a Mom?

Even talking about being a Mom can make me tear up. I had wanted to be a Mother since I was 5. I dreamed and longed for the day that my day would come. Motherhood for me hasn't disappointed all my hopes and expectations...it is everything I could have asked for and more. I didn't want to "wait" a day to have our Van, but the day she came I realized it was absolutely perfect timing. I feel the same way about our Vin.

5 years ago I would have said that the best part of being a Mom would be to hear the sounds that Van would make while she was sound asleep on my chest. Then there was that phase of walking, talking, eating new foods, and seeing everything for the first time...those were all the best part of being a Mom. Van is now my big girl, and the best part of being her Mom is just that...I am HER MOM. There is nothing better than that.

The best part of being Vin's Mom...well, I still have skinny days...he has been kind to me in that way. =) He is a quiet little thing. Vin likes my music, and will break out in dance with me in the car on the way home. He is brave, I know this because he is the first boy of 7 girls! You have to agree with that!?

I couldn't be luckier to be Van and Vin's Mom!
