Happy Mother's Day!

It's still hard for me to believe that I get to be in 'the club' who celebrate Mother's Day. Originally, all I wanted for Mother's Day was to take an uninterrupted nap, however, we ended up having a wonderful time yesterday just playing and having fun as a family. Paul did so much to make my day as special as possible, including hooking my up with a new camera! This camera has only a 0.7 flash delay...and yes, I was finally able to take some perfect pictures of Kailey and Owen!

Celebrating Mother's Day allowed me to reflect on my role as a mother. It is such a different time in my life compared to where I was just a few years ago...everything is different! However, I wouldn't change a single thing about my life right now and I can truly say I have never been happier. I am thankful for so many things in my life, including the fabulous role models that I have had on Motherhood. Grenna, Bubbie, Nancy, many aunts and friends have guided me through this wild ride. But, the most inspiring will always be my own mom who has shown through love and sacrifice how to be the best mother that I can be. Where would I be without you, mom?

And finally, thank you Paul for being an amazing partner and sharing this journey with me. You have given me two beautiful children and a wonderful life (even though I complain too much about moving around, etc., etc., etc.). No matter where life takes us, I am blessed to share this life, this role of mother, with you!
