Day 277...My Son


Nov 2

Today, I'm thankful for my son. He is the biggest joy of my life. He's so sweet, and funny, and smart (of course I'm biased). He is with out a doubt, the love of my life, and I can't imagine my life with out him.
I can remember what it was like before he was born, and life was good. But now, it's so much better. I feel like a complete person, because of both Martyn and Eli. Being a mother has changed me in a profound way, that I could never even begin to explain to someone....not even to Eli. I know he knows what I'm saying, to a certain extent....Daddy's are changed by becoming daddy's, too. But not the same way as Mama's.
My mom always used to call me the Joy of her old age, and she named me so as well...my middle name is Joy. That always made me feel special, but I never fully understood what she meant until I had Martyn. I'm not old, but he most definitely is my Joy. What a wonderful blessing!
