Mother's Day 2010

Mommy this post is for you because I know you don't Facebook!
Mother's Day was great this year. I felt like such a princess. My kids mean so much to me and I am grateful and blessed to have them in my life. Saturday night started off the festivities at Chris's dad house in Grantsville. He had a BBQ for all the Mom's in his life. The roses in the picture are from him. I woke up on Mother's Day morning to Chris saying "Happy Mother's Day" to me. We went to Brunch with his family and his mom gave me the bowl of goodies with the recipes for fun and simple snacks to bake with your kids. She gave me this really sweet card thanking me for being so good to her son.

Ayana made me the "Mom" card, necklace, homemade card and coupons I could use for chores and other things. My boys gave me kisses! My mom and dad gave me some much needed beauty products and a wonderful Scentsy room spray! Yay!!!

Chris gave me that beautiful ring!! He is so sweet to me. So different then what I am used to. He genuinely enjoys seeing and making me happy. The man I have children with didn't even acknowledge it was Mother's Day.

Anyway, I am truly blessed to be a Mom and be able to celebrate this Holiday with my children, the people that mean the most to me and especially my Mom.

My Mommy!

This Sunday is Mother's Day! My mom is the best thing that has ever happened to me. When I was young, she cared for me. Changing diapers, feeding me, teaching me and loving me. My mom has been there for me through the good, the bad and the down right ugly! She never judges me, although she might not agree with the decisions I make or the way I do things. Mom always offers up the best advice and the best meals!

I have so many memories growing up, too many to put down. So to sum it up in general, the best memories I have are with my family. My mom was always the center of those memories, be it a vacation, wiping away tears the first time my heart was broken by a boy, or being to EVERY single performance or game or school function. Basically my mom is the most wonderful woman in the world. She is my friend, my confidant, my support system, my teacher, my everything!

I love her with all my heart and every ounce of my being. I will never be able to repay her for all the things she has done and continues to do for me and my children.

Mom, I love you! Please know that I could never articulate how I feel about you and all the wonderful things you do. I know I am not always the easiest child to deal with even at age 32, but know that I never meant to hurt you or cause you stress or worry. You are an incredible Mom and Nana and person! I hope we are able to celebrate many more Mother's Day's together!
