I Never Knew....

I never knew......that being a mom could be so difficult.

I never knew......that being a mom could also be so rewarding in that same moment it is so difficult.

I never knew......that my heart could almost burst with so much love for my children.

I never knew.....that the adoption journey would be as difficult as it was/is.

I never knew.....that this same journey would be 1 of the biggest blessings in my life.

I never knew.....I could love a child who is not of my own flesh just as if he was.

I never knew....I could feel so much love for the woman who gave our son the gift of life.

I never knew....the journeys that God would take me on so that I would learn over & over to just trust Him.

I never knew....that in almost 5 years, not a day would go by that I wish I had all 6 of my children to hold here on earth.

I never knew....that most of these thing I never knew would make me who I am today.
