Mom's the word!

Happy Mother's Day. I am a very lucky girl. Not only to I have the world's greatest Mom, but also the world's greatest husband.
I have the world's greatest Dad, Dog, Cat and friends and family too!!!
Let me round out the weekend for you...
I came home on Friday and the house was full of tulips!
There was a note attached to one of the bunches that said Happy Mama's Day, Love Baby Lauryn. See you soon. xoxox
There was also a "I love my Mommy" bib. Kyle, you are the world's most thoughtful husband. I adore you! Thanks for making my day special!
Friday night my parents came down. They stayed the night, and on Saturday Mom and I went to get our hair done. That's what we do for Mother's Day. My treat!
Then we did some shopping and just caught up! It was nice.
Sunday we went to see Kyle's mom and my Grandmother. We had a great dinner at my parents place, and just hung out. It was really nice.
The weather wasn't that great, but the company made up for it!

I feel in my heart that our baby is out there. I just hope she can feel our love too. Sometimes I could just scream with how frustrating the wait has been. Other times I am totally fine with it. I guess that's pretty normal!
I just want my baby home. I want her to know that she is loved, and she will never want for anything that she needs! A pony might be a want, but one that we will have to negotiate! LOL! Truthfully, we can't be certain that Baby Lauryn is even born yet. If she is and she is waiting in the orphanage, it breaks my heart to think that she is crying without being held, hungry without being fed. I am sure they do the best they can. I can't wait to bring our little girl home. I hope I am half the mother that my mother has been to me. She is the worlds most kind, gentle, brilliant, funny beautiful mother in the whole world. Thank you for shaping me, thank you for allowing me to be who I wanted, and thank you most for supporting me in our adoption journey. I love you Mom. Happy Mother's Day! xo

To all the mother's out there. Regardless of what part of the journey your are on, remember that your baby is out there. You've come this far. Each day you get a little closer. Good luck with the rest of your journey. For those of you with babies already. Congratulations. I can't wait to be part of the club!

Honey, I don't read your blog every day & have just confirmed the reason - it always makes me cry!
Your writing is so beautiful & heartfelt.
You will be an amazing Mom & Kyle will be an amazing Dad and my greatest wish is that you're holding baby Lauryn in your arms really soon and coming to see Nana & Grampa!
