Why God Made Moms

I got this adorable email a few days ago from my friend Jamie and I thought I wondered how Grace would answer these questions - so I asked. I deleted some of the original email just to save on time and space and all but I think you'll get the idea behind it. I had a few moments when asking the question that really made me hold my breath for a sec wondering what she would say. All in all my little girl thinks I'm okay and that's wonderful!! Sometimes we're harder on ourselves than we need to be and for the time being I think I'm doing ok at this whole Mommy thing : )
