Catching up


Sorry it's been a while, but things have been pretty busy.



This is Jackson, my other child.


We start em young.



Dad, let me drive.


I think I can handle this.

A couple of Saturdays ago we worked really hard in the yard getting mulch out. I am so thankful that I have a personal "Gardner" in the family. Thanks dad and Kyle for all the help and mom for helping watch the children.


And then yesterday was Mother's Day. I had a great day. Matt woke up early and he and I had our time together. Then Mags woke up and the fun began. I cooked breakfast and we all sat at the table and ate together. This rarely happens. The kids had me a really pretty card with some money. And I needed that. Then it was off to church. We had lunch with my mom and dad and spent the afternoon with them and then we headed to Ms. Wanda's (mother-in-law) to spend time with her and supper. It was a great day. I thank God for my precious children.


Bath time. First time we tried this. Dad was in our way and we had no other choice. Water was everywhere!


Teenagers!


Much better! My three little angels!


Just a few little notes:

Mom: Thank you for who you are! I love you so much. You are not just my mom, but my best friend. You are my shoulder to cry on. You are listening ears for me to let my feelings out. We just take it one day at a time and you still convince me I don't need that prozac, even tho I think I do. Thanks for all you do for me and my family and for loving me. Words cannot express how grateful I am to call you my mother. You have always been so caring, hardworking, patient, & loving and I appreciate all you have done to raise our family through the years. You have done a wonderful job. I love you... Happy Mother's Day, Your daughter.



Ms. Wanda: Thank you for all you do. Thank you for making me a part of your family. Thank you for taking care of my kids everyday so I can work and not worry about them. Thank you for all your help with Matt and Maggie...I truly appreciate it! I love you...Happy Mother's Day,
Your daughter-in-law.

I hope everyone has a great week. We are counting down the last few days of school.
