Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day everyone!  I saw this on a message board today and I felt I should share.  It is sweet and gives me hope. 

"Happy Mother's Day"
It comes around every year;
But when you have empty arms; it's very hard to hear.

It's a day to celebrate a mother,
for all the trials she overcame;
and a reminder to an infertile
of what she'd like to gain.

But what really makes a mother,
Is it just conception and birth?
Or is there something more,
that shows a mother's worth?

It's putting your child first,
in everything you do;
It's sacrifice and determination,
and love and patience too.

An infertile woman makes all her plans
around a child not yet conceived;
She loves them even though they aren't here,
more than she ever could have believed.

She appreciates and understands,
What a blessing that children are;
She works hard for just a chance,
That motherhood is not that far.

All odds are stacked against her,
And yet she still has hope;
Everyday is another struggle,
Finding ways to help her cope.

So even though her arms are empty
she can still be a mother too!
So say a special "Happy Mother's Day"
for those waiting for their dreams to come true!
