Mother's Day.

This is my second Mother's Day without my mom. Definitely easier than last year, but still a sadden day.
This whole week the only thing that has been on my mind is my mama. I keep thinking of all the little things she use to do for us. How her being my mother shaped me into the person I am and mostly into the mother I am to my son. I find myself doing the same things to Connor as she had for me. And if they aren't done the same, I feel they are wrong. Silly to someone else I know, but to me that is the way I was taught. I know my son will never quite understand my ways in raising him and the love I have for him. Just because my mother gave me the most unconditional love. I just wish so badly he could have grown up with my mother's influence on him. Just because of the huge impact she made on my life. 

This Mother's Day I will spend the day with Connor and think of how blessed I am to have such an amazing boy and also think on how blessed I was to have such an amazing mother who not only loved me and cared for me but showed me how to be the best mother I could be. She was the true example of a loving mother. I hope I lead in her footsteps and become the person she was to me, to my son.

I hope everyone has a Happy Mother's Day and for God to give anyone that has lost their mother comfort on this day and have joy in the remembrance of the time they had with them.
