6

Jackson,

Today you are 6 months old.

If you would have asked me 5 months ago if I thought I would make it to this point, I would have, without a doubt, said no.

It was a rough road getting here to this place where I feel like I truly know you. To this place where I am comfortable and happy with my abilities as your mother.

You are such a happy spirit and I thank God everyday for what you bring into our home. But most importantly, I thank him for how you've changed me.

I am more patient

I am more organized

I am more understanding

I am more loving

I am more driven

I am a better listener

I am a stronger person

All because 6 months ago you chose me as your mom.
