Seriously?!

I am just sitting in my car right now in the parking lot. Letting this
boy get his nap on. I never have the heart to wake my buddy when he
conks out in the car... It's just too evil.

Anywho, I almost just started crying. Why? Because LOOK AT THIS KID!
Oh man, I'm tearing up writing this. I'm such a weirdo.

How lucky am I? How did I get such an amazing blessing as this baby
boy? It's definitely not roses and butterflies all the time, but as I
think about how much my life has changed in the past couple years and
how unglamourous and wonderful it all is at the same time, I can't
help but be overflowed with gratitude for the perspective I've been
blessed with in this life.

People spend their whole lives looking for personal fulfillment and
purpose, but in my personal opinion, there is no calling more true and
more perfect than motherhood. Being a mother fulfills every desire I
have for a greater purpose -- there is definitely more to do and
become, but for right now, being the best mom, friend, and example to
this lil' one is all the matters. And for that, I will always be
grateful.
Love. Love. Love.
That's all I feel right now.
The end.

Becca, you seriously read my thoughts today and are so right on, its not even funny. People do spend years...and money, and dignity in some cases looking for true joy in all the wrong places. Motherhood is a precious gift...THE most precious gift I have ever been blessed with. I sometimes can't even comprehend why I have been so blessed, and feel so lucky to have been given something that brings me the most joy and self worth that ill ever have. In other words, ditto. I loved reading this.
