Mother's Day

Mother's Day was a great day! Church was good, and spending time with both mine and Steven's mothers was perfect. I have a great mother in law who raised my husband into the awesome man that he is. And for that I thank her. My mom is the strongest woman I know, and that is a fact. She deals with so much everyday, and she still puts everyone above herself. She is so selfless, and loves her family with her whole heart! I look up to her more than she knows, and I truly hope I can be like her! My children adore her, they always ask if it's the day we can go over to Ftn. Green. I am so glad they love it there as much as I do. I admire my mom. I remember growing up with a mom who had a love for the scriptures, who did everything to teach her family the Gospel. She loves her Savior, and she helped plant the seed in me to help me come to love my Savior. I am so grateful for that. The Gospel is so important, and she taught me that, and I hope my children will also learn that from me. I love you Mom! As for me; well I love being a mom. I honestly truly love it. Growing up I knew one thing for sure, and that was that I wanted to be a mother. I had changed what I wanted my career to be several times, but I never strayed from the fact that I wanted to become a mom. I thank my Heavenly Father everyday for that opportunity. Truthfully being a mother is HARD. There are a lot of days when I feel like a failure, where I don't feel like I am cut out for the job, and then my girls tell me how much they love me, or Jace cries for his Mom, and I know that at some point I got something right. I am so blessed to be able to stay home with them everyday and watch them grow. I am so grateful my children chose me to be their mom. They are perfect for me. I never in my life thought I would have twins, but I am so thankful I do. My girls have become my best friends. They know me so well, and they especially know my heart. And my buddy Jace has his mommy wrapped around his finger, he is my little mommy's boy. I love my children, and even on the hardest days, they make it all worth it. I could look at their sweet little faces all day! I just hope I can be the mother that they deserve, and the mother that can teach them to love the Savior, as my mom, and Steven's Mom have taught us. I hope my kids know how much they are loved!
