"A mother understands what a child does not say." - Jewish Proverb
Happy Mother's Day!
Being a mom is the best "job" in the world! I'm so thankful for my husband who works so hard so I can stay home with my children. God has truly blessed me! Here are the 4 reasons I love being a Mom.
I have been blessed with a wonderful Mother who is also one of my dearest friends. My mom has been a wonderful example of godliness to me. She always has a beautiful smile, even in the darkest times. She is an inspiration to me as a mom. Many times in dealing with my children I remember how my Mom handled the situation and try to do the same. My mom loves people and has given her life for others. Many times when I talk to her she is on her way to visit someone in the hospital or take someone a meal or take someone to the grocery store who can't get out on their own. She is always sacrificing her time for others. She has been married to my Dad for 40 years and is fiercely loyal to her family. She offers encouragement instead of criticism when I make mistakes and always believes the best in me. She is also a wonderful grandmother and my children love every second they get to spend with her.
My Beautiful Mother!

breaks, bruises, and birthdays
Happy Birthday, Julie! I could not have chosen a better sister ever! She is beautiful, amazing, and my best girlfriend ever!
Here is Ella sporting her latest accessory. She fell off the swing set and broke her wrist last week. She has an extremely high pain tolerance and this really hasn't seemed to phase her. My girls are so very different when it comes to pain. Ella will walk in the house with scrapes and bruises that I have no idea where they came from because she doesn't cry easily. On the other hand if Abby sees some ketchup on her finger she will start crying because it "might" be blood.
Ella with her splint she wore a for a few days till the swelling went down.
She chose these colors for her cast.
A couple random pictures of Isaac.

Happy Birthday Caleb!
We celebrated Caleb's 8th birthday last week. God truly blessed us with a wonderful first-born son. He's got his Daddy's blue eyes and his Mommy's freckles. He's very tender-hearted and cares deeply about others. Happy Birthday Caleb! I always try to make my kids' birthday special by making their cake. I included a few snapshots of some of them. If I find the missing one's I'll post them too. They may have been pre-digital camera days.
