A Beautiful Day

Today was especially nice, being that Kevin has returned from yet another Army thing. It was for only a week so I wasn't as frazzled as usual but definitely ready for reinforcement. The spirit was so sweet at church today and the YW/YM delivered a lovely musical number. It gives me hope that the days of screaming, hungry, poopy toddlers won't last forever! I had such a warm feeling sitting in Sacrament meeting knowing that the role of motherhood is amazing and the role that I need to focus on in this crazy world. I'm so blessed to be given this wonderful opportunity and my goal is to be better. My children deserve that.
On a lighter note... Kev came home the other day and mentioned an article he found that put out a study of how much a stay at home mom would make and all I can say is where's my pay check! It estimated that we're worth about $139,000 a year.
Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful mom's, where would we be without you!

Happy mother's day, kate! You really are an inspiration to me. Whenever I get frustrated with Penelope, I just think: Kate's got two more and she seems to be able to handle. So thanks! You're amazing!

Kate, you just have to think of all the money you're saving your family by being home and doing the work that some people have to pay others lots-n-lots of money to do (and never as well as THE MOM). Lacy, remember we all have to grow into motherhood. I remember wondering what the heck was wrong with me when I would practically be CRYING trying to take care of Addie, telling myself, "..and she's just ONE baby?!" I never could have done six years ago what I do now. No way. Kate, glad you had an edifying Mothers Day! XOXO
