We had four unsuccessful attempts at starting our family and I knew it was hurting her – the prospect of not having a child (and having only my mug to look at for the rest of her life). So when Rachel was given to us I know Sharron felt complete. When the midwife gave Rachel to Sharron she could not stop saying “its a girl, we have a girl!” Everyday I’ll see Sharron looking at Rachel in awe of her. “She’s so wonderful,” she says. She’s just so wonderful.” (She really is, y’all”)
Sharron hasn’t stop marveling since.
Someone once told me that I should marry someone who I would want to raise my child. I cannot think of anyone better than Sharron. Rachel absolutely loves her and I love seeing them together. They have so much fun. Every now and again I get some face time with Rachel but for the most part, its Mommy! Each time they go to playgroup or storyhour at the library or when she’s chasing Rachel around the house and reading to her or singing to her, their relationship gets stronger. Rachel has the perfect example of what it means to be a lady, a mother and a christian.
I love Sharron and I don’t know how I would be without her. I’m still trying to figure out how I made it all those years without her without killing myself, but I’m glad she’s in my life now. My plans for a mother’s day gift didn’t materialize like I had hoped but at least I can publicly proclaim that I’M MARRIED TO THE MOST WONDERFUL WOMAN ON EARTH.
She’s a wonderful mother to Rachel, a beautiful wife to me and gift to both of us. Happy mother’s day Sharron Yvonne Denman (aka Baby Boo) We love you!
Here are some images of Sharron from a time before “us”, as a mother and as the beautiful woman she is.
