Happy Mothers Day

well, the cats out of the bag....or rather....the dead rabbit is out of the hat! guess who announced they are pregnant? if you guessed babybro & his new wife, yup, you'd be right. seems she's due in october. by my math she's gonna have a premie. oh wait! think she might have been boinking him before they got married? & got pregnant? no way! she looks so sweet & innocent & babybro is mommy's perfect baby boy. surely they didn't do this in the wrong order. doesn't life have a way of biting you on the ass just when you think its all fun & games? damn it, even the best of us get caught in these predicaments. a bundle of joy is on its way & my in-laws have no grandkids, this will be their first. i can't wait to see how they handle it. they are quite stuffy in their old age.
hubby & i were pregnant once. i lost the baby at 4 1/2 months. i guess it just wasn't meant to be. god just decided to take it back but i'm sure he had our best interests at heart. for awhile that tore me up. i couldn't understand why i lost our baby. i've dealt with it now but then it was devastating to me.
mothers are special for all of us. even those that don't have close relationships with their mom. somewhere along the way we all realize what a treasure our mom is....or was. i didn't fully appreciate my mom while she was alive. i never truly expected to lose her that soon. i've regretted that every day since i've lost her. i'm sure lots of people feel that way. so for those of you that still have your mother & can show her how much you appreciate her please take the time & express your love & appreciation for her. this special day comes only once a year but we have 364 other days to truly relish her. she deserves every one.
so, happy mothers day to all mothers. happy mothers day to all mothers out there that doesn't have someone to say it. happy mothers day to those that are no longer with us. happy mothers day to babybro's new wife who isn't a mother just yet. happy mothers day to yours.
happy mothers day to me.
later.
