Mother’s Day always makes me thankful I’ve had the opportunity to be a mom. So I’ve been reflecting on it quite a bit the last week or so. I’m not always the best at being thankful for what I have in life, but one thing I try to thank God for daily is my son.
It was just yesterday when he looked like this. Sweet huh?
I haven’t really shared it here, but having children was not an easy thing for me. I had a really difficult time getting pregnant, then staying pregnant once I got there. For me my son was a complete miracle. He’s 12 now, and I’m still thankful to have him, even on the bad days.
He’s ovarall a good kid, but he’s definitely no angel, and I’m sure he’ll put me to the test during his teenage years! He’s very laid back, but when it suits him he can turn on the drama and crank it up a couple notches. I try not to spoil him and give in to everything he wants, but he’s an only child…
Mother’s Day and Johnson’s got me started thinking about how thankful I am to be a mom. Johnson’s is running a contest right now, with every “promise” (“like”) made at their Facebook page, facebook.com/johnsonsbaby, Johnson’s donates $1 to the March of Dimes.
Johnson’s is also hosting a series of photo contests on its Facebook page beginning in May. If you’re selected as a monthly winner you’ll receive one of a variety of prizes and be eligible for the $25,000 Grand Prize, to be announced in January 2012.
Sounds like fun! I might have to enter the first photo above.
I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Johnson’s and received Johnson’s Baby products and a promotional item and to facilitate my review.
