Happy Mother's Day

I feel blessed to have spent another year with my children. It has been 14 years since I spent a mother's day with my mom and the older I get the more I realize that her knowing that she was dying and leaving three kids without their mom must have been much harder for her than it was for us, as kids, to loose her. I miss her greatly and I would give anything for her to meet the two beautiful children that I have been blessed to raise. I've been a mom for so long, its hard to remember what life was like without kids but I know there is nothing else in the world I could ever enjoy more than having two smiling faces to greet me every morning when I wake up and to kiss me every night before I go to bed. I hope to have many more years ahead to watch my little boys grow into young men. Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Yard Work and Watermelon

We had another busy weekend. Gage had a baseball game Friday night, then we went to Relay for Life after that and didn't get home until almost eleven o'clock. Griffin had a game Saturday morning and Gage had practice for his traveling team. They are playing in a tournament in Florence in a couple of weeks so right now he's playing on two teams. Saturday night Gene and I got a baby sitter and went to eat at the Old Armory in Camden then we went to see Made of Honor-we had a good time. After church Sunday we spent most of the day working out in the yard then we grilled out. As you can see, we had watermelon-Griffin's favorite. The other picture is of Gage cutting the grass, now that he's learned how to operate the lawn mower that's his new chore.
