Do mothers always feel this same overwhelming love for their children? Does the love keep washing over you when he is 24 years old the same way it did when he was 24 hours old? Will my heart leap with delight every time I see him the same way it did when I held him for the first time? Will I always want to touch his cheek while he is sleeping so peacefully? Will the love always bring tears to my eyes?
I sure hope so.

I don’t know about moms, but I know that dads feel that way.
Dear Sunny,
It is very much the same, even when they are 24 years old! I wish I could be there to hug Brenton on his birthday in a couple of days! I’m so glad you are enjoying being Mom. I know there are days when one wonders…. but I rejoice with you!
Love,
Mom
