I never planned on becoming a mom.I never planned that my life would change irrevocably for the better.
I never planned for this beautiful little being to come into my life and challenge me to become more.
I never planned to have an excess of love inside of me for one little being.
I never planned any of it, but I wouldn't change a thing.
To be that same person I was three years ago, who only had to think of herself, who didn't really have a 'direction' in life and no clue as to why, what, how or where. I still may not know why, what, how or where, but over the last two years, those things have come more into focus because of someone else.
I am challenged on a daily basis, to be the best person that I can be, to help shape a little person so that she may grow up kind, respectful and full of life. To enjoy the moments, to cry, to laugh and to be the best person that she may be. To be independent and to trust herself to choose her own path, to have her destiny revealed as she journeys through this lifetime. To try not to pass down my issues and my beliefs, so she can own her own by choosing wisely.
I never planned on being completely in love for the first time in my life and I don't mind who knows it!

The same thing happened to me! Who knew? But, I'm glad it did. Aren't we blessed?
Lovely lovely post darling sister.
She was in your plan - you just didn't know it.
And i'm so glad that she is now a part of our family.
Oh, sweetie-pie.....you are amazing!
I am so glad that I am able to keep in touch with you this way. With love from a very cold 'other mom' in the UK. Di
