mothers day!

Last year on mothers day Glen and I drove to the hospital to have baby Preston.

This year on mothers day we sat around and talked about all that we have been through in the last year, and laughed about the position we find ourselves in..... pregnant again. After such a crazy, busy weekend, it was nice to take Sunday off and just relax with my family.

The highlight of the day was skyping with little brother Richard who is on his mission.

He is seriously the cutest kid ever. We miss him so much. I can't believe that he will be coming home to two new nephews and a new sister in law. Lots of big changes since he has been gone.

After skyping with Richard, Glen made me an amazing breakfast. We then got ready and went to church. My dad spoke in sacrament meeting and gave a great talk. It was really nice to be able to honor mothers and be honored myself. There really is nothing better then being a mom. I love the divine calling that it is and the joy that it brings my life.

I am very grateful for my mom. She is the most amazing woman that i know. She has the best relationships with her spouse and all her children. I strive to have those same kinds of relationships. Thanks for all that you do for me and my family mom. We are so lucky to have you! Preston is every bit as obsessed with his grandma as i am with my mom!



I also have to mention my mother in law Marla. We love her and appreciate all she does for us. I am extremely grateful for the amazing son that she raised. Without her, Glen would not be the man that he is. We love you Marla.

Wow you have had one busy year! I am sure next Mother's Day you will look back and realize you can't imagine life without either of your boys!
