Baby's First Mother's Day
Yesterday Bear and I celebrated Mother's Day. Anthony slept pretty much all day so Bear and I had a little mommy and me fun! We woke up at 7 am ate and got dressed. Then we went for a walk and went to the park. This was the second time Bear has ever been to the park and the first time he really got to play because last time he was too sleepy. I pushed him in the swing and we slid down the slides. It was so simple but so satisfying. After that we walked home. Bear had a little nap then he got up and and I gave him a bath. We playing in the bath and then on the mat for a little but afterwards. After playtime we did a little craft. You can see it in the pic below. I wanted to put his hand prints in mine.... but that didn't work so well lol I it is REALLY hard to hand print a baby! So I ended up just doing one of his in the middle of mine. It looks kinda funny but still it's the thought that counts! :] Our mother's day was absolutely perfect.

A Letter to my Stepmother for Mother's Day
Dear Amina,
I just started thinking about you randomly because mother's day is coming up this weekend. I was thinking about how my father may try and persuade me to call you and wish you a happy mother's day... and I thought to myself what I would say to him if he should call. My thoughts went a little something like this: "A true mother would not accuse her daughter of bogus crimes everyday for 10 years straight.... a true mother would not abuse and beat her daughter everyday for 10 years for committing those imaginary bogus crimes.... a true mother would not tell her daughter she was going to kill her... a true mother would not treat her daughter like a criminal on death row." Now of coarse I am not going to say these things to my father because it will just make him want to fight with me and cause problems. But I will NOT acknowledge you as my mother and I will not be wishing you any happy anythings! I realized something today. I do NOT forgive you for what you did to me. For what you put me through for those 10 years. You destroyed me as a human being. You took a giant chunk of me and you ruined it. You stomped on my personality. You KILLED me! Because of you I am very much unable to be myself unless I am around those I am 100% comfortable with and at this point that is only my boyfriend and my son. I am a believer in Jesus Christ and I know I am wrong for not forgiving you! I know I HAVE to forgive you and I am working on that but it is just so very hard. I would be lying if I said I forgive you. So here I am telling the truth. I DO NOT FORGIVE YOU. I do not wish to ever see or talk to you again. You are not welcome in my life or in my house and my son will have nothing to do with you. If I can help it he will never even know you existed. It is clear that you will never come to acknowledge the fact that you were and are wrong for thinking I did those things and until that happens, I am sorry but I can not have a single thing to do with you. I will never again feed your bogus fantasies. I do not wish anything ill upon you. I hope you have a very pleasant life that does not include me or my family. This is goodbye. If you attempt to talk to me in the future I will try very hard to hang up but more than likely will not have the courage to do so, so I will talk to you for a few minutes and kill the conversation as FAST as humanly possible. Have a nice life.
