Happy VERY belated Mother's day to all the Mom's. We had a very nice Mother's day. We went to brunch with my Mom and the entire clan at Cinzettis. It was super yummy! It always cracks me up that they let kids like Caleb eat for free because he is 2 years-old when he eats like a grown man! Seriously, that little guy can put away some food. But that is very good for him considering he needs a ton of calories, protein, carbs, and good fat in his diet every day. Whenever he gets sick his Dr always tells us to make sure and call if he stops eating...mine and Shane's response to that-if he stops eating we will be rushing him in the ER!! Sadly, a lot of CF patients really struggle with failure to thrive. We have been blessed that our "heavier" genes have been passed onto him :)
On a more serious note. I love Mother's Day. Not because it is about Mom's-but because I am who I am because of my kids. There once was a day when I could not imagine what I would be like with having a child of my own. Then Caleb came along. It was shortly after I had him that I could not remember or imagine what my life was like without him nor could I fathom (I am not sure if that is the correct spelling) loving another child as much as I love Caleb. Then Haley joined our family. And now...I can't imagine what it was like without her and seeing her interact with Caleb. And how my heart can love another baby just as much as my first baby. Love is an amazing thing that God has given us. I love to love my babies. I love being their Mommy. My life was so empty before we had them and I did not even know it.
