Tears of JOY!!!
Hey everybody!!! I hope you are all having a blessed week!!!
I had to share my great news!!! Tonight me and my 2 year old were cleaning out some boxes in my closet (as we just moved into our 1st house that we are buying!!!) and I was going through some old things, and just getting rid of some junk... Well my daughter was playing with all the crap that I was throwing in the junk pile, and I just let her be. Hey she was entertained, and for once it wasn't by Dora! lol Well She kept saying "look momma, look..." I just kept saying, ohhh and awww to her, just to keep her busy, but I turned around, and I am still not sure where she found it at.
My mom had given me a necklace a couple months before she passed away. Its a cross and the back its engraved, it says "You mom will always be in your heart! Love, mom."
I thought this necklace was lost for good, as I haven't seen it in almost 4 years. I thought it has been lost in one of our 6 moves in the past 4 years! (we seem to lose a lot of stuff that way)...
I BURST into tears when I saw what she had found, and I kept hugging my baby, telling her thank you!!! She kept asking me "Why tear mommy?, Why?" and "why sad mommy?" I was trying to explain that mommy was not sad but tears for joy!!!
I have had a really hard time dealing with my mom's death 5 years ago,and it still gets to me (I was only 18 when she passed.)
But today was a great day, and someday when my daughter is old enough, I will pass down the necklace to her!
Well the reason I am telling you all this, is because I have been 2ed guessing have the WLS for the past week, and not sure that I was making the right decision. When my mom was still here, and coherent enough to hold a conversation, she had told me in a private talk between her and I, that my weight really concerned her, and that I needed to do something about it, before it was too late...
I feel like me finding this necklace today, is like a sign, telling me that she is behind me 100% for WLS. I have been praying about it a lot too asking for guidance... :-) I HAVE finally found my answer to my prayers!
Okay enough about my day, and thanks for listening!!!
Hope everybody is enjoying there holidays, and HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!
