20 years ago today I became a mother.
I was only 17 years old and scared to death.
I had no idea how much that tiny little baby was about to change me and my whole life.
I sure did a lot of learning along the way!
Many mistakes were made over the years and some pretty hard times were had but never, ever was there a lack of love.
For a lot of years Bethany and I were a team that had to grow up together.
I used to feel guilty about that, like I robbed her of having a real mom when she was young.
But now, I realize that those years help create the very special bond that we have today and I wouldn’t trade that for the world.
Happy Birthday to my beautiful daughter, who I truly enjoy spending time with. We still make one great team.
That is a totally awesome post! Happy birthday to my beautiful niece!!!!
