Twenty-three years ago today, I went into labor.  Twenty-three hours later...HE showed up.  All red and screaming, with one eye open, just so he wouldn't miss anything, I am sure.

He is the best thing I have ever done...hands down!  I couldn't be more proud how he has turned out...so far.

As I look back on this day, I have to be mindful of how different I am since then.  Being his Mom has made me a better person.  He is my biggest fan.  He encourages me to be so much more than I would have been without him.  Thanks for being my Son, for making my dreams of being a Mom come true.  For making my dreams have meaning.  I love you more than words can say.  Happy Labor day...I guess you could say.

Hi there. I probably happened upon your website while doing a green search or something....anyhow I really like it here. I came across this post of yours today and felt so united with you in the way you describe your love of being a mother. I feel exactly the same way. Belated Happy Birthday to your son!
