Happy Mothers Day

I know I'm a little late in posting this, but thats me for you always behind at least in the blogging world. I had to post a few pictures of my darling babies. I'm so grateful to these two little monkeys for giving me the opportunity to be a mom. I always know how lucky I am but Mothers Day is just a reminder of how wonderful it is to be a woman. I feel there is more that defines a mother then to just have a child of your own. I think you can be a mother to someone in more ways then one. Nurturing defines motherhood. There is nothing more fulfilling in life then to be a mother. I know at night when I tuck my kids in and give them a kiss I think about how grateful I am to be doing this, to raise them, love them. There isn't anyone in the world that can make you feel so special then a child. Happy Mothers day to all woman you are all amazing I hope you all had a good one.



This year my mom spent the weekend camping so we just went to my mother-in-laws to spend time with her. I'm so grateful to her she is such a wonderful person. So sweet and giving. I love her so much I don't think she really knows how much I admire her. She's overcome so many hard things in her life. I hope that over the years I can learn how to be more like her. She has been such a good mother to Souli I know she loves him very much. Thanks for all you do for us. You are such a special person. We love you so much.

The next day my sisters and I decided to take my mom her Mothers Day gifts. How could I go a Mothers Day without seeing the mom that I admire and love more then anything in the world. She truly is the person I don't think I will ever live up to, but I hope I can be at least part of what she was to me to my kids. She is an amazing person. I don't remember anything in life that she did not take care of. I know being a single parent she had to do most things on her own, but she never complained. She is the most happy optimistic person I know. She amazes me, still now she is such a great mom to me. She has taught me everything I know about being a mom. I love you mommy thanks for all you do for me and my family.

While seeing my mom we got KFC and took it to the park so we could talk and the kids could play. It was fun to sit there and talk like we did in the old days. I didn't get many pictures but this one of my princess and me was pretty cute.
