Last Mother’s Day I had empty arms and a broken heart…fast
forward to this year and I have an 11 month old. It is crazy how fast one’s
life can change if you’re open to it. A few weeks back we had a lesson in
Relief Society (the women’s group in my church) it was about being an
instrument in God’s hands. I am forever thankful to the mothers that played
their parts in Ellie’s life. They were truly instruments in God’s hands.
Because of these two special mothers, husband and I have our beautiful, spunky,
sassy little lady. This Mother’s Day both my heart and arms will be full and I
could not be more grateful.
To Ellie’s birth mom and all the other birth mom’s out there
Happy Mother’s Day to you. Thank you for being so completely unselfish. Thank
you for being an instrument in God’s hands to help Him give me and all the
other adoptive mommies their miracle(s). Thank you for doing what I could not
do. Thank you for being willing to keep my baby alive. Thank you for NOT giving
up. Thank you for realizing that the sweet baby you carried was meant to be
mine.
To all the aunties, step-moms, foster moms, grandmas ...Happy Mother's Day to you! You play an integral part in someone's life, do NOT forget that!

To all the future mommies Happy Mother’s Day. My heart
breaks for you. I know the pain of wanting a baby more than life itself. I know
the soul crushing weight after each negative pregnancy test, with each passing month...
I know that adoption is not for everyone. However, adoption is an AWESOME option. It is a way for God to provide miracles. A way to get your happily ever after. A way for a motherless child to find a home, love, happiness, and their happily ever after. They need you as much as you need them! Do not give up, have an open mind and let someone be an instrument in God’s hands for you.
