You have no idea how relieved I am to finally be going home. It's not that I'm not having fun here, its that my sister just had a BABY! on MOTHERS DAY!! Pictures soon to come!
It's so hard to believe my little sister is a mom now. She's 7 years younger than me, and I sure see a big difference in her maturity level since she got married and went through pregnancy. Now I get texts from her almost daily stating how wonderful it is to be a mother. I must say, part of my heart pangs a little bit every time I hear that, because I would love to have that experience. But I guess if my heart didn't pang, I would be worried that I didn't have those natural and beautiful desires to nurture one of my own. Think about what a miracle it is just to be a mother! Heavenly Father really created a masterpiece in the human body--our own bodies can create something that will be around forever! Not just a rock or a drawing or a delicious meal, but a living, breathing, thinking, feeling thing that can learn, grow, progress, and do great things! How cool!! :) And to be a mother, wow what a responsibility! Because you are the guiding hand as that little being grows to influence them to make good choices and to show them a good way.
Thank you, Moom, for being such a loving influence in my life. I love my mom!! And I love my sister. :)
