Berthon Baby Dedication

This weekend was full of wonderful milestones as a Wife, Mom and a child of God.

So as you know Sunday was Mothers Day, Last year was my second year as being a Mother but for some reason I really felt like this year I earned the right to be very excited about the day being about me. I think part of that is because Hannah-Joy was a total dream baby and we just always had an amazing relationship and from the day that I found out I was pregnant, I knew from that moment that God was going to give me a little girl and her name was going to be Hannah - Joy. The meaning of her name is Hannah (Gift From God) and Joy (She is a total Joy). Now that we have added 2 more little girls into the equation and they are completely different from there older sister Cheyanne Hope she is a very high matince baby and the funny part is she was the most active when I was pregnant with her but I know that her middle name hope suites her as I hope great things for her and know that she is very special and is very close to mommy were H-J and Bella are def daddies girls, then we have Izabella Grace and her name truly suites her as well she is the most graceful child and is so laid back and sweet and hardly cry's unless something is seriously wrong. So this year I truly felt like a mom and felt like I earned the right to be loved on and it was the first year that I really felt like a true mom.

Sunday was also Baby Dedication, this is something that I had been wanting to do for a while but my heart was never in the right frame of mind and that is something very special that you do for your kids. Having the twins was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life, physically, mentally and emotionally and so after praying about it we decided that it was time to dedicate all 3 girls. We didn't know at the time that it was going to be Mothers Day, I literally cried because of the struggles we have had to have children and it was an honor to have them dedicated on Mothers Day.

The moment we walked on stage in from of our church I got this feeling of calm and serenity. God had told me that this is the church that we are to be a part of and that the people in front of us truly are going to keep us accountable on how to raise our children. With 3 girls as a Mom the only thing that I pray is that as they get older they have the confidence to know they can do anything and also find a man who will treat them like a queen but also a man who looks to his wife as a partner. I was blessed to have a partner who will do dishes, does laundry, changes poopy diapers, cooks dinner and also takes care of me it is amazing.
