Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day to my wonderful mom. My mom has always been my best friend. We talk every single day. I am happy when she is happy and sad when she is sad. I have a soft spot for my mom and dad. Not only is she a wonferul mom but she is an awesome Nana to our kids. I don't know what I am going to do after we move and not see eachother every week :( For now I will cherrish every moment we spend together.

Last night my mom & niece came to church with us and then we had a fancy little meal at Rosas :)

LOVE YOU MOM!

The other joy about Mother's Day is knowing I have 2 amazing little kids & husband. I love my kids and their personalities. I love not sleeping in on the weekends and being woke up by a little girl kissing my cheek. I love picking up all their toys over and over again every day. I l ove watching them sleep. I love to hear "I love you momma" from Parker. I love when Liam says "mama". I love picking out their clothes every night and getting things ready for school the next day. I love watching them play together in the bath tub every night and laughing so hard! I love everything about being a mom & thank God for my sweet little beauties.

Tanner is never good at holding onto gifts. They just sit there and torture him so I always end up opening my gifts, for any occasion, early. Saturday evening I decided to open my Mother's Day gift. I knew he had been working on something but never imagined this.

A photo box & an accordian book for my sweet family! Tanner knows I love my kids & love pictures so he couldn't go wrong. He went and bought their outfits, lined up a photographer, had my mom take me to dinner, managed to make Parker keep quiet, & ordered them! I am so impressed and amazed at all the work he did.

I love every single picture. I love how they aren't perfectly matched, Parker's hair isn't fixed how I would normally fix it, and how my husbands handwriting isn't the best. But all those make it the best present I have received!! I love the inperfection of the details because my little babies are perfect!!

 Parker had to throw in her "teapot" pose =)

 haha, I love that the sign is almost as big as Liam

Happy Mother's Day to all the mommies, soon to be mommies, & trying mommies. It's not only about being a mom. It's about being the women God put us here for. We were put here to be more and do more than being a mommy. Pastor Patrick gave a wonderful sermon yesterday on this. I will share more later.
