My two greatest gifts - Peyton and Trace. God chose me to be their mother and for that I will forever be grateful. They have brought endless joy, love and happiness to my life. They are my everything.
Peyton is an amazing daughter, sister and friend. I am so proud to be able to say that about my girl! She is giving and caring and kind and beautiful. She is a complete ball of energry and smiles. I love her "to the moon and back" and think I read that book to her at least a thousand times over her childhood. I have only a few short years left with her under my roof, but will never be done being her mother. I will make sure she continues to grow and become even better a person. I can't wait to see what great things she accomplishes when she's All Grown Up.
Trace is a brave, loving and resilient little boy. He is an inspiration. He has the most amazing smile. I am so proud to have been chosen as his mother. I hope to one day be able to teach him as much as he has taught me. He endures more on a daily basis than most could. He is strong, courageous and never goes down without a fight. I live everday to feel his skinny little arms wrapped around my neck - it is truly the best feeling. I pray everday I may see him All Grown Up.
I have chosen to be a warrior for both of my children. The battles I fight for them are very different. For Peyton I fight so that she may achieve everything she sets her mind to. I have fought hard to make sure she has had the best life possible. I fight to protect her from all the bad things & even worse people. I have fought so she may learn to fight for herself. For Trace I fight so that he may live the most normal life possible. I fight for him to enjoy everyday. I fight for a cure for Mitochondrial disease. I fight for his life. I hope to one day win. I will never give up.
They are my heart
Happy Mother's Day to all my fellow Mother Warriors ~
Hope, Love, Courage &Faith,
Laurie
