Happy Mothers Day!

First I must say how thankful and blessed I am to have a mom that was and is so loving, that by example taught me how to be a good wife committed to serving and loving her husband (my dad). For showing me that being a mom means to love, nurture, and teach your kids. So thank you mom, for being who you are, I hope to be a mom and wife as good as you are.

Now as for my mothers day the only hard part was having to wake up a 6am for church, after hitting the snooze several times I finally woke up and was greeted with this lovely continental breakfast. I know Coy wished it could have been more but I enjoyed it and did not expect him to wake up any earlier then he had to considering just about everyday he has to wake up at 4 to go to work, and it was more then I usually eat on Sunday. I enjoyed some Apple Jacks, pear slices, and yogurt with granola it was very tasty. You may have already noticed two things about this photo, one we do not have a breakfast try so I am using a baking sheet, two at the bottom of the picture is my large round belly that restricts me from having the tray any closer.
Emma woke up soon after with a cry and a very loud thud, after running into her room in a hurry Coy and I discovered her standing on the floor outside her crib. I knew this was coming soon but was still very suprised, her tears stopped almost instantly when Coy gave her, her milk. She then finished my breakfast for me while I got ready.Coy got me this frame with pictures of all of us even Ella. Emma got me some cute slip on shoes and Ella got me a shirt that will help keep her warm. Emma decorated my Mother's day card for me which made it all the more special.
Later that day Coy and Levi made Jennie and I lunch Levi prepared a yummy chicken salad while Coy made a delicious veggie soup. We enjoyed the rest of our evening playing Mario cart on the Wii, which I must say is the only driving game I have ever enjoyed. It was a great Mother's Day and I was blessed and so thankful for my wonderful husband and my sweet daughter Emma.
