Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day!!!

I had an awesome Mother's Day even though Mark was in China. First thing in the morning the boys made me breakfast in bed! It was wonderful :) They managed to find the cut up fruit in the fridge and muffins on the counter just fine ;) I even got a cup of coffee! Then we went to church and out to lunch afterwards with Ma & Wes at the Cracker Barrel - yummy!! It was great until Emma started screaming bloody murder in the middle of lunch. I ended up having to take her to Prompt Care because she had a UTI - no fun!! I'm still not happy with the doctor who insisted on catheterizing the poor baby even though we both knew what was wrong with her... grrr! After our detour to the Dr. I went back to my mom's where the other kids were and Patrick had a huge surprise for me!! He finally learned how to ride a bike!!! I was SO proud of him... of course I cried - but we're all used to that by now, right?

Me & my babies :)

Nothing could make me happier than being a mom. I was born for this job, I just know it! I love each of them so much...it's indescribable.

Me & Ma - I'm lucky to have such a good Mom who's always there for me. :)

Ma & Wes with the kids.
Emmy

Benny - I swear, it's so hard to stay mad at him when he's in trouble...he's just got the cutest little face and chubby little cheeks!

Here they were chasing bubbles outside of Cracker Barrel while we waited for a table.

Emma on the ride back to Ma & Wes' house after her traumatic Dr.'s visit. I bought her the puppy to help her feel better :(

There he goes!!! So it's a girl's bike... he can ride a bike!!!

Yeah, I stuck her up in a tree and took a picture... so?

Gracie on the trike.

My precious little girls.

My sweet little boys.

I'm the luckiest Mom alive.

Thank you, God.
