Mother's Day '16

Had to add this quick pic of Rio and Lennox.  She was going around the house labeling things one day and we found Lennox with a label as well with his name - love her! She is so funny!

Mother's Day 2016

Making me breakfast with daddy.  Pancakes with chocolate chip hearts and an "m".

Some very special cards and beaded gifts from the kids - they are so sweet and thoughtful, really they are.  Such sweety kids!

Well, we try to get pics with all the kids and at least some were cooperative :)

Thoughtful gifts from Spence and the kiddos

Apparently, Rio insisted that I have this Begonia plant because it was yellow and she knows I love yellow :)

And some other beautiful petunias as well.

Lucky me!

Perfect for the Spring to have hanging plants.

Happy Mother's Day to me!

I am beyond grateful to have the opportunity to be these 5 kids mom.  To have been able to carry them and to hold them and love them as babies and to watch them grow and become who they are meant to be.  Honestly, my biggest hope as a mom is that I raise them to be who they were meant to be for Heavenly Father and that He would be proud of them. 

For so many years, I wasn't sure how I would be a mom and then poof!  5 kids within about 4 years and I wouldn't want it any other way.  They are wonderful and I have daily work to become the mom they deserve.  I'm grateful for many other mommies and daddies that surround them and help them to see who they are.
