Mama's Day

Mother's Day this year seemed extra special to me this year. It was different then previous years. Maybe it is cause I have a tiny baby, but overall from the beginning it felt extra special. Normally on Mother's Day I want to sleep in, then Ron and the kids make me breakfast in bed.  This year I took joy in getting up with my kids. I really feel that I was blessed to see the beauty in my role as a mother that day. When Rosie woke up for her 5-6 am feeding I was groggy but I felt privleged thinking that nursing Rosie was only something I could do. Then afterwards I happily walked into the kitchen and fed my other littles a breakfast of toast and eggs. It was a simple and fabulous morning.

That afternoon we had missionaries over to call their families and eat dinner. That didn't stop Ron from spoiling me rotten. The first gift he gave me was an infinity necklace. I love what it represents. 

This isn't what made this Mother's Day the best though. What sent my day through the roof was the poem he wrote for me. It made me cry and laugh. It was filled with exactly the reasons I fell in love with that boy.  What put it even more over the top was how he told me it took him days to write the poem, but not because he couldn't think of the words. He said every time he thought of me and our life together he started to cry. Pinch me. 

I felt so special that day, and felt so blessed to be called mommy. I am so lucky to have my 3 little rascals. My life is so fulfilling and my Heavenly Father has blessed me in unimaginable ways. I am one lucky mama.
