1st Mother's Day (pt 2)

Mother's day was such a wonderful day. I thoroughly enjoyed every single part of it. Derek and I got to dedicate Ingrid to God. Vowing to raise her in a Christian home and pray for her day in and day out. Honoring our commitment we made before she was born; she belongs to God and we'll do our best to raise her the way He wants. It was a special moment and I was so happy our family was there to support us.

I have confidence I will be a good mom BECAUSE I have such a great role model. I will try to follow in my mother's footsteps when I raise my kids. She is the best example anyone could have. She's loving, giving, caring, selfless, honest, strong, and spiritually sound. I love you so much mom!

The weather was terrific Sunday and Ingrid and I got to spend some alone time outside playing. It was so fun. I got a wonderful handmade card from Ingrid (helped by her Gammy) and a photobook of pictures from birth through 7 months (with help from her daddy). I love these two presents so much. I will definitely cherish them always! Apparently I can add Mother's Day to the long list of holidays I adore. YES!!!
