The Saturday Before Mother's Day is National Birth Mother's Day.
To honor our amazing birth moms, we had an amazing brunch at the home of a sweet adoptive mother, and master chef, Maggie. We had homemade pancakes with homemade syrups, bacon, sausage, eggs, hash browns, fruit, and juice. It was a feast! We ate and talked, and talked, and talked. Next, we had a touching presentation from our new FSA chapter chair, Amanda, during which time she shared THIS article about the making of the song, "From God's Arms, To My Arms, To Yours," by Michael McLean. Each birth mom had the opportunity to introduce herself to the group and share her story. It was a wonderful day and a privilege to be with so many heroic women.

BUT...the day would not be complete with out a little swag to take home.
Each Birth Mother received a gift bag filled with goodies. A special thanks to the following donors:
The Body Shop
Deseret Book Store
True Birds
Thank you to all of the Birth Mothers and Adoptive Mother's who made our first Birth Mother's Day brunch a success.
And a VERY special thank you to our FSA secretary, Jenn, for personally making each bag (with matching bookmark to boot) and for collecting and assembling all of the items for the bags.
