Happy Mother's Day!

What a wonderful Mother's Day weekend! Went to dinner with Mom, sister Amy, brother in law John, my honey and my Nash. Then today tennis lessons with Nash and his buddy Cade, who also sports an extra, and is in his third grade class. and found this wonderful video of Nash at age 3 wishing me Happy Mother's Day in Sign. I remember crying so hard. Sniff sniff. Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day!

Happy Mothers Day!

my mom was always mom to all! Feeding Bandit our raccoon.... Hip Mom.... and me, mom and Nash yesterday... love you mom!

Mothers Day...it just doesn't get any better....

It's Mother's Day weekend. One that I thought always was for my mom, and other moms. Not me. I am the woman that worked hard to get her degrees, and always knew that if and when I wanted children, well then POOF they would be there, and I would have my mother's day. No one told me that with age, the eggs decrease, and the chances of being a mom become nil. Research queen that I am, that was the last subject I ever sought out on the internet when I was "full of eggs"...oh yeah, the internet wasn't around then. I digress. Now, I have been blessed by being part of Mother's Day. Now, I love to share my Mommy Moments. So you all just have to indulge me. Here is one when Nash was three, I so love this! Photo Sharing - Video Sharing - Photo Printing - Photo Books And one year ago, Nash wrote his name for me for Mothers Day and I got Dog Art. Wow. Today I cried when Nash brought home his little, simple, photocopied book for Mothers Day. Why you ask? Because the writing under each simple picture was done by him, in his handwriting, which is his biggest delay. I know how much he struggled with each letter, each word. I know he probably got his card "turned" (the school discipline) on Wednesday because he was working on this, and didn't want to write...but it was for his "Mother's Day project". For me. THAT makes me cry. I got a text from a co-worker with a picture of her son's Mother's day project. He had sewn a little blanket for her. As a mom she shared her joy, just am I am here. But her son is five. And it's ok, because she didn't get Dog Art. I did. Happy Mother's Day!

Thinking of Annette as Mother's Day approaches, and always....

Now I know Annette knew then, while she visited Indiana, that she was not going to beat the cancer beast. I didn't know then. I thought she would be with us forever. Note to self. Don't listen to LeeAnne Womack's I Hope You Dance while reviewing pics on your flickr account.......
