Mother's Day 2014

How does one sum up what it feels like to be a Mother?
It's the hardest, yet most rewarding job on the planet.
I've heard it a million times, but I can't think of a better way to put it.
To have the honor of teaching these children to be respectful, Jesus loving children.
To teach manners.  To have fun.  To be silly.  To make memories.
Being a mother is my greatest joy.
It doesn't come without its fair share of hard days, but at the end of the day, these 2 are my world.
And I'm so thankful to be able to be home with them every day.

Thank you Jesus for a mother who showed me the ropes.
She's my glass half full.
My lemonade maker when life hands you lemons.
My laughter when the times get hard.
My everything.
Oh, to be half of the woman she is.
Happy Mother's Day Mom!




Annual Strawberry pickin' on Mother's Day
We didn't actually pick this year, they were all picked over, but we did buy farm fresh.

And the ONE that made me a momma.
The one that asks a million questions a day.
The one that has a million requests a day.
The one that can find good in anything.
My bird watcher.
The one that loves hard.
My sunshine lover.
A tender sensitive soul.
My rule follower.
The one that can talk a blue streak.
His daddy's carbon copy.
With a little touch of OCD (like his momma).
This one,  he's mine and I couldn't be more thankful.
