Happy Mother's Day from me too!
Becoming a mother was a hard road for me with severe endrometriosis and all the surgeries for it. All ended well however when we became ecstatic parents to 2 baby girls in less than 2 years through successful adoptions. Our daughters are now in their twenties, lovely and delightful, and utterly devoted to us. We've been so blessed by them. Even thinking about them takes my breath away!
I am, in my fifties, still incredibly lucky to still have my own wonderful mom. She's 88 and other than normal age changes, is basically healthier than me. She lives on her own and drives to church, bank, grocery store and is in a hula class at the senior center! She's fun and my sister and I love including her in everything we do.
I'm not a grandma yet... wait--- each daughter has given me the fun of a super little granddog!
