mother's day.

 

I feel so blessed to be able to be a mom!  What an incredible gift children are, and the fact that I get two of my own to raise makes me so incredibly thankful...and a bit terrified as well, if I'm being honest.  Some days I feel as though I don't have a clue what I'm doing, but thankfully I've got some help!  I say so many prayers throughout the day...for strength, for wisdom, for patience, for the hearts of my little ones, for their future, etc.  I couldn't do it on my own.  

We had a great Mother's Day as a family.  I missed being with my own Mom, and also Tyler's Mom, on this special day, but we had some great time as a family.  Tyler went wild with his gift for me.  I got golf clubs!  I couldn't believe it.  He loves to golf and he's heard me mention a few times that it would be fun to go with him.  I never imagined getting my own clubs!  Of course I won't have much time now, but at least I have them and can start learning, so that maybe someday when we're older I don't have to start from scratch. :)  We went on a picnic in the evening together.  It was a beautiful night.  I am so thankful for my little family!  

AND...a great big HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to my incredible Mom.  I feel so blessed to be able to have such a beautiful, caring, wise mother.  I realize more now, more than ever before, all the work that went into raising me...and all the love she showed me.  I love you, Mom!
