Mother’s Day
I am a mother: through the grace of God, a young birth-mother
Shawn, and the blessing of my only child who allowed me to love her and be her
mom.
As I face the first Mother’s Day without
my biggest blessing and best friend, I hold in my hands, not what she gave me
two years ago, but what I gave her.
You see, I came to realize that Mother’s Day wasn’t
about ME
getting. It was about me GIVING honor to this precious young lady who
was my heart and soul.
On that Mother’s Day before
she became sick in 2010, I had given her a bracelet, pendant, and earring set
that shows she was in the heart of God. My being a mother was only because of
her birth.
I am thankful for the blessing. She was my joy, the center of my
heart. I will miss her forever.
Love never ends and a mother’s broken heart never mends.
I loved her before she was born. I loved her all the days of her
life. I will love her as long as God gives me breath.

Deshawn Dowd, I am so proud to be your mother. Forever and
always, I will always love you.
