Mothers Day



What a wonderful Mothers Day! I love being a mother and I love the many Mothers that surround me! I have so many great examples in my life and so many "moms" that help me raise my little man....I am forever grateful! Above is a pic of me and my mom and my sister Jen and sil Miranda. These women are all such great examples to me and such great moms! I'm so blessed to have them in my life. I didn't get a picture, but much love goes to my mother in law and two more sils Hayley and Heather. They are also amazing examples to me and such amazing moms!
My favorite part of the day was when Simon came in from outside and had a bouquet of dandylions he had picked from the yard and said "These are for you, Mom!" I thought Cody had put him up to it, and it meant even more once I realized he did it 100% on his own! I love my little man so much!!!

Cody and Simon also got me this awesome garden bike to put a few potted plants in! I have wanted one for quite awhile and am so excited to get planting! Poor Simon just doesn't understand why he can't try to ride it!
After church it's always time to make the "rounds" and wish our Mom's a great Mothers Day. We started at my mom's house and had a BBQ with my family. It was so great to have Greg and his family and Jen and her family (minus a few of the Soto's). Simon is always so excited to be with Sid. He trys to hard to be big like Sid.
And I'm always amazed at how grown up and beautiful Caesy is! Wouldn't you just kill to have those beautiful freckles?? She hates them, but I wish she could see just how georgous she is!


Sid was showing us his "ladies man" faces. He devulged some information about a new "lady friend"! With that "come hither" look I'm sure the ladies will be flocking around him! He's such a funny kid!

I'm so bummed I didn't get more pictures once we went to the Johnsons. I guess I was too busy getting my butt kicked at Canasta. But I did get a pic of the kids playing. They were pretty good and actually allowed us to play uninterrupted. I love it when they play good together!
Thanks again to all the many moms in my life! And to my mom....thank you so much for all you do for me and my family! You have been a great example to me and I hope I can be even half as good of a mom as you are! I love you all!

I love it when I get boquets of Dandilions. Best weed ever made!

Fun! Jocelyn picked me some dandelions the other day, but she just popped the tops of so there are no stems. Looks like you had a good Mother's Day.

Well put! Mothers are wonderful and it's amazing to think how many of them are around us - being mothers to us and our children.
