Having children is the most natural thing in the world. My body grew children. I make the decision and the effort and the sacrifice to inspire and encourage everyone in my life not just my children. Thats the hard part I choose, I didn't have to do anyting to become a mom except for have one good night of incredible sex! LOL.<br />Thanks for your great blog today!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-14176038180792581272009-05-10T17:21:00.000-04:002009-05-10T17:21:00.000-04:00Dave

I plan to do it more, thanks to youEileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08840254396320552806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-66473891708908548572009-05-10T16:52:00.000-04:002009-05-10T16:52:00.000-04:00SO AWESOME!!

It seems very contrived, although I might just be a cynic. I do, though, love the idea of miraculous loving. <br /><br />thanks,<br />Lisalisanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-24953025100111892682009-05-10T10:23:00.000-04:002009-05-10T10:23:00.000-04:00Wonderful!

Mostly, I am just happy for him as I can see that he is so enthusiastic about starting his adult life and working on planes.<br /><br />I spent my first Mother's Day with him (one month old) and my dying mother's last Mother's Day. To say that I had mixed emotions is an understatement.<br /><br />Today is also my father's Yahrtzeit (anniversary of his death.)<br /><br />So, I have another Mother's Day with mixed emotions.<br /><br />Dave, your writing was heartwarming to me today, when I needed it.<br /><br />Thank you.CJnoreply@blogger.com
