Happy Mother's Day To You!

Hope everyone has a great mother's day! I am so lucky to know and learn from so many amazing moms! These are just a few of the mothers that inspire me to be better on a daily basis! A sign of a great mom is evident in the children she is raising! Also thanks to my Anna and my Lily for making me a better person and mother! They are so wonderful and I can't imagine my life without them! They make my heart so full!

Jamie-well, let's just start by saying anyone that has 5 kids and manages a smoothly running household like she does is amazing! I don't know how she does it! All of them are well mannered, caring individuals with their own uniqueness! Love em! Kudos to you for raising amazing kids!

Amy-Works full time and always makes sure she spends time with her 2. Em is amazing, one of the cutest, smartest girls I know! And Ben, well I could go on forever, he has endless smiles for almost everyone! Balancing a job, household duties, JH, and a husband going back to school and still manages to be amazing mom who never yells! She is awesome!

Ginny-I love how she lets Gracie be whoever she wants! If she sometimes comes to school looking a little mismatched, it's okay! She is letting her make her own choices! Ginny is a real full time mom because her husband works about, well, pretty much all the time! I love that she has so much patience with her, even though she is with her soooo much of the time! I know that when her 2nd comes along she will still be just as amazing!

Brooke-Well I haven't seen her in action yet with 2, but i will soon and I am sure that she does an amazing job! Anyone who is willing to sacrifice 3-4 months without a husband to move back where she wants to raise her kids, well I can't imagine raising my 2 without Chris for even 1 month! Scary!

Anyways the list could never end, I just wanted to say thanks for being great moms and friends! I also wanted to say Happy Mother's Day to my mom who with grown kids, the job is still a full time one! I don't know how she does it! Also to Julie for being an awesome mom and grandma! And for raising a great son, who in turn is a great husband and father!

Happy Mother's Day To All!

Ashli- that made me feel sooo good, you are such a sweet person. Now I will tell you why you are such an awesome mom. You have 2 children only 2 years apart and you work WITH them. Now I may be patient, but that is simply unheard of and commendable. Anna is one of the sweetest, smartest and most adorable girls Grace and I have ever known (and very good with animals:)) Lil may possibly be the cutest little ole thing ever created. Most of all they(along with Chris) are very lucky to have such a fun and caring mommy. Have an awesome day, love you

Ash- that was one of the sweetest things anyone has every said about me. In most cases, our children are the one thing we pour all of our love and energy into and it is rare to have someone compliment they way a person parents - and it means a lot coming from someone I adore! The feeling is definitely mutual and I hope you realize what a good mommy you are! I hope you had a winderful Mother's Day.
