I almost feel like writing a blog post is blasphemous because I have so much to be thankful for and no words to describe it. My cup runneth over in every aspect of my life. I am thankful to be here, in this very moment. I'm typing on the computer while listening to Cori Connors new album, watching my dear Kday hold his daughter and feeling like the luckiest person alive. I'm thankful that I will never spend another holiday wishing that Kday and I could share our traditions with our child. I am thankful for the completeness that I feel. I'm thankful for the light in my daughters eyes that sparkle when she smiles and it makes my heart melt. My stomach swarms with butterfly's just thinking about her.
I am most thankful for all the pain I suffered to bring Layla into our home. All the bitter times have made motherhood so much sweeter. When I married Kday I thought that my heart was absolutely full with complete love that was physically possible. And if the Lord's plan was for Kday and I to be all there were to be... that would have been more than enough. But today, there are no words. Total completeness. I never knew the love a mother could have for her children. Now I can understand the love the Lord has for me.
And THANK YOU all for your love and support.
