The Joyful Mother Manifesto!

Even on the toughest days, when my patience is tested, when my spirit is down, when I'm TIRED, and even when I'm forced to carry my screaming, tantrumy 2 year-old down to the car like a sack of potatoes when I'm already late for work.....I love my Zoey more than words and I wouldn't trade my life for anything. It's funny how kids are soooo smart - they test us and push us right to the edge.....but then just when you're about to snap, they say something drop-dead cute, or start dancing and making silly faces, or run up to us with open arms and stammer...."Wuv you mama!". Oh Zoey, you keep me on my toes and open my heart more than I ever thought possible. Being a mom is the best thing in the world! : )
