Happy Mothers Day Mom!

MY MOM
I have to admit I have the best Mom ever!! She is funny, she is giving, she is humble, and she is loving! Best of all she is so fun to be around and a great friend! She is the best Grandma a grandchild could ask for! I am so lucky to have such a great mom! She sacrafices so much for her kids, even now that we are moved out of the house! She wakes up at 4:30 to drive to my house to babysit my kids! Who does that?

She is a total beach bum, just like myself!
She doesn't mind playing in the sand with her grandchildren,she is like a child herself!

She has the need for speed!!(or just a nice straight ride across the beach and then in a nice straight line right back! Just like the waverunner!!) Yet, she has no problem giving others less relaxing rides! My swimsuits have proof of it!
She loves her grandchildren, even if she has only grand boys!!
She has no problem acting goofy with the goofy family, even if it means putting her in a box, or shopping cart!
She loves her family enough to let them pile onto her bed!


She is always there waiting with open arms at the deliveries!!

Her grandchildren love her more than I think is possible to imagine!






She raised five kids and has made being a Mom and housewife look like the easiest thing in the world, but now that I am one I know that it is by far the hardest thing to do! How she did it so well and with such ease I don't know! I don't know how to take care of two kids let alone five! And I rely on my parents so much for help, yet she raised her kids without her Mother there to help! Mom you are amazing! Thank you for being you! Thank you for helping me with my kids, they love you so much! You are a great example to them! Thanks for babysitting, thanks for family dinners, thanks for being a shopping partner, thanks for being funny, thanks for being someone to talk to, thanks for serving others so diligently, thanks for Bear Lake trips, and hand and foot games, thanks for boat rides and laying out on the beach days, thanks for diet coke and pink cookie trips, thanks for rides in the convertible with the top down whistling at boys, thanks for attending every soccer game I think I ever played, thanks for being there during times of tears, thanks for the times you laugh so hard you pee, thanks for the times where we probably shouldn't sit next to each other at church, thank you for your testimony of the gospel, thank you for being my Mom! I love you!
