Mother's Day 2018

After taking a month off (unintentionally, but necessarily), it's time to do some catching up!  I'll post the next several posts in chronological order the best I can and date them accordingly, and hopefully they'll come much faster so I can get back on track.  We'll see.

Mother's Day was great!  I loved all of the great little surprises from the kids.  Luke's Primary class made tissue paper flowers, Eliza answered a questionnaire (always a favorite!) and made fingerprint hearts, Jack wrote me a cute little note, and all of the kids made these great family portraits with Suz while Ben and I were gone on our trip the week before.

I was happy to celebrate Mother's Day with Suz - one of my favorite moms, and a very dedicated one - and her family.  Ben and Ben made a great seafood dinner for us.  Yummy!

Suz and I also snuck away to talk to eachother and call our Mom, and the girls came to hang out with us as well.  I didn't get a full family picture or mom picture, but I like these shots a whole lot!

I am so glad that I get to be a mom and so thankful for my wonderful kids and husband.  And I love and appreciate my wonderful mother and all of the amazing women who have mothered me, mentored me, and looked out for me, and done those things for my kids.
