Ellie loves Johnny!

I am starting to fully appreciate the love, devotion and work that goes into being a mommy. I watch all my friends here who have little precious ones, and all I can draw from my observations is that there is nothing more selfless than being a momma. They give their youthful bodies to create and nourish a new one, they try to enjoy adult company while keeping a 360 degree survey of the area in order to secure safety for their babies, they keep the house tidy so that their little ones will have room to explore and grow, they work diligently in the kitchen to make sure tummies are full, they rub your back as you make a mess of their toilet from too much birthday cake, they make sure that every kid feels the most special, and last but not least their prayers before they sleep and before they wake is that you feel happy, healthy and loved. I feel so blessed to have the model of a beyond amazing momma. I tear with gratitude for the everlasting snuggles, kisses, and words of encouragement you have given me over the years. You are the best mommy I could have ever dreamed for. I learned how to love from you. I love you with all my heart.
