Here's the first (kinda) picture with my three (kinda) kiddos. Today, on Mother's Day, I feel especially blessed to have been given the opportunity to take part in the upbringing of these three beautiful children.
This morning we went to mass and I felt very emotional during the service. All that has been given me...all I have been entrusted with. After mass, we lit three candles, one for each of the kids birthmom's (afterall, the kids have two mom's to be thankful for today) and one for Tessa, that she be healthy, well-cared for, and come home soon.
God bless all the mother's today. A special thank you to MY mom for always being there for me, for always loving me, even when I was unloveable. I love you mom.
And hugs to all the mom's-to-be, the mom's in waiting who desperately want to hold their children in their arms. I know how it feels to have the ache of empty arms. You're in my thoughts and prayers today.

What a sweet picture of the three of you! I hope you had a blessed day; I was emotional in church this morning too.

Hi Michele! Great to "meet" you! And sure you can put my blog on your list...I'll add yours to mine if OK with you!
Your children are beautiful, well and handsome! Congrats on your hearing date, I hope the courts keep moving quickly and Tessa is home very soon.
And I can relate to the emotional episodes, I get them in the grocery store, driving in my car, at work...this wait is just so hard!
I love the picture. Hope you had a great mother's day:)
Oh I love that photo I can't wait to see Miss Tessa added to the group next year!
