Mother's Day Photo Contest

5 Minutes For Mom is holding an amazing photo contest. She is taking submissions in the form of photos of what motherhood means to you. And the winner will get $1000.00. Can you say WOW?!?! It is being sponsored by Egg Beaters. WTG Egg Beaters!

Here is my entry
This is a picture of my mom holding my Addison. My sweet girl was hospitalized on her first birthday with RSV & double pnemonia. I never felt more vulnerable in my life. There was nothing we could do but hold her and surround her with love. Usually that is enough to suffice, but for some reason it didn't seem enough at that time.

What a sweet picture despite the terrible circumstances. I am so glad that birthday number 2 was a more joyous occasion.

How terrifying! I'd feel vulnerable, too. This picture is so sweet and its so true. All you can do in that circumstance is hold her and surround her with love. Man, I don't ever want to see the inside of a hospital ever again....I'm sure you feel the same way!

P.S. I saw your bringing home baby episode today! Gees I feel like I know you already! *wink
The girls were soooo teeny tiny and look at them now so grown up! Time flies!
