That is love--choosing to love without the feelings. Because every mom will have a time when children say something mean or are not kind, and you don't feel the overwhelming gushy love; yet we still have to choose to love--and to do hard things because we love. I'm also glad the feeling came, and your son has a special momma.Creative K Kidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07079032333516107282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2346003865235388496.post-76188003758320151112014-05-12T06:53:15.211-07:002014-05-12T06:53:15.211-07:00Hannah, I'm no good at written replies.

You went through a lot to learn to love your son, and one day he should feel incredibly privileged. Most kids moms love them just because they exist. But your son will know you love him because you WANTED to, more than anything else in this world. He will know that you made it a priority in your life to learn to feel that love for him. What a lucky little boy. :)Jen Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09012649214352276700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2346003865235388496.post-7428028023676400952014-05-09T18:12:37.147-07:002014-05-09T18:12:37.147-07:00A very close friend of mine recently told me that ...A very close friend of mine recently told me that it's okay to not be okay. It was a completely different situation than this, but I think it applies here also. No one should be ashamed to not be okay. You just have to remember that someday, somehow, everything will be okay. In the mean time, you just have to do the best you know how to do. :)shlipeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05274669700252181246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2346003865235388496.post-40283935273686125422014-05-09T17:20:19.386-07:002014-05-09T17:20:19.386-07:00I remember the first time I saw someone say that t...I remember the first time I saw someone say that they struggled this way.

Some people will just never understand.<br />We may not be like the majority of mommies, but we are awesome ones!
