Just wanted to wish everyone here a Happy Mother's Day and Happy BMom Day for those who honor that day.
I wish my kids' other mom had even a fraction of the strength, courage, honor, love and integrity that you all have. I wish I could share the wonderful things about my kids with her and show her how completely awesome they are. I'd love to share the not so wonderful moments. I want to tell her I wonder how I'm going to get through puberty. Funny...it doesn't say in my mom handbook that I have to go through puberty all over again via the kids:arrow: I'd love to send her samples of the art work and creative projects they do, and their school pictures that never capture who they truly are but are hilarious to look at anyway.
Of course I can't and some part of me likes that I can't because I honor my kids first and her second. Still...she's their mom too and always will be. I thank you all for showing me that through the years and allowing me to see her in a different light. There's no comparison between you and her, and yet I've still learned to have some compassion for her through you and your stories. You've given me much and I'm grateful for the many friendships I've made here. Through those I laugh and cry and share the bonds through our children, eventhough we come from different ends.
So for that, I just want to take the day to honor you all even if I'm not the one who should honor you. I pray that your adoptive families will honor you as they should and if they don't, I hope in some small way you know that you have touched others here and your voice is important.

Crick, Thanks so much for your thoughts! I hope you're kids drive you crazy tomorrow, like I know they will - and I also know, while they are doing so, you will have a big ole goofy grin on your face!Enjoy your soggy cereal and golf course tours :)I had a fantastic day today - and was surprised when John said, "Birth mothers day, hmmm...is that cause for celebration?"It was certainly a day of reflection for me...and it ended with a totally awesome hair cut and some nifty new iTunes gift cards :DTomorrow, I plan on sleeping late. Real late. Like 6!
From a "Wonder Womb" to a "No Va Jay Jay Mom" (and if I knew how I'd change my little title under my name) Happy Mother's day to you Crick!
Though we've never met (I'm still ticked I missed that trip to sin city two years ago) I have come to like and admire you so much. One post I remember from you was many years ago when you were wondering if finding an action figure in dog poo could be considered art if you took a picture of it...Now, that is a MOM!
Dang I love another brilliant, sick and twisted mind! The support and knowledge I find here from all members of the triad is wonderful. Every once in a while I find myself needing a little hiatus from it all...But, what binds us here is a love for our children and others who might understand a little of our struggles.
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your kind, loving words, Crick. They brought tears to my eyes just now... You could always scan your kiddos' art work into your computer and show us! I know it's not the same, but you sure would get a lot of "oohs and ahs" from the bmom crowd here!!! Happy Mother's Day, Crick!! :flowergift:

Crick: I hope you enjoy your Mothers Day too!!! You know you are amazing, and I've learned so much from you too! One of the many many amazing people that have supported me here. I love all of you!!!:thanks: Oh, and if I ever find a way to conduct a "mano e mano", you are so the first one I'm calling!!!
Paige - LOL! I totally forgot about that discussion...omg! I'd like to think I've matured and grown since then, but since I took a picture not too long ago of dd in a "pre-adolescent but full on puberty hormonal rage without the actual puberty" rant where she told her brother he's evil for being a boy and she's going to make him suffer...I obviously have not grown. ;) (bad mom..bad! LOL!)
Brandy - You pampered yourself yesterday??? WOW! You go!
Thanks for the Mday wishes y'all...hope today is bearable at least and you all find ways to honor yourselves and be honored by others. Spa anyone? We can make our reservations under our "special" names. Man, I'd love to see the look on their faces if we showed up as "No Va J J", "Wonder Womb", "Crackwhore", "BabyStealer", "Primal Mother" and so on..:evilgrin:

Brandy & TGM....you mean someone actually TOUCHED your stinky feet?? OMG! I hope you tipped well.;) Was there any white residue poring out of your big nasty toe at all? Hope they wore masks.;)
I'm jealous! LOL! Man, I love me a good spa! Okay...BCW and TMom added to our ever growing list. Now..we can't go to Sin City for this one because they are used to odd names. Yet, not too small of a place because well, we don't want our mani's done with a sander made from ole truck parts that were sitting out in a yard left to rust. Kwim?
