Mother's Day


 Today, I miss my Mother just a little bit more than most days.  I wish more than anything I could hear her voice just one more time, or see her beautiful face. Oh how I wish she could have met her grandkids, I know they would have loved her so much.  I love you Mommy!  

 Today, I am also wishing I could be with my Grandma.  And if it weren't a 48hr drive home, I would definitely be there in a heartbeat.  She truly is the inspiration for the kind of Mother I aim to be.  She is loving, caring, stern, and funny.  She is an excellent cook, gardener, seamstress, and is knowledgeable in every topic.  She has stood by me through every bad decision, every scary night, she is the first one I call when something goes wrong or when I have good news.  She is my Best Friend!  

I love this photo, both of us were not ready to take the picture.  Oh and yah I'm pregnant with C here.

And I am seriously trying to be just like her thanks to my new sewing machine.
My Mother's Day gift from the Hubby and kids  :)
I did have a great Mother's Day.  We went out to dinner on Friday to Ruby Tuesday (we wanted to beat the rush).  And best of all I got to sleep in today! Happy Mother's day to all the moms out there!

P.S. Yeah, I totally never finished the 30 Day Challenge, but if you really know me that isn't a big surprise :)
