IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU, I WOULDN'T BE A MOMMY!

today is Mother's Day and it was rough!!!!!!!! after a very LONG and tough week, i was looking forward to this mother's day alone with my little family. the morning started out late(b/c i was too tired to get out of bed)i was running around trying to get the kids ready, myself ready, snacks packed, church bag packed, and breakfast served. we head out the door and off to church. now for the last 3 months that i've been going to church without rene have been pretty smooth. NOT TODAY!!!!!! i had to take nico out three times and my buttons were completely pushed!!!!!! we get home, to a not so clean house, had to get lunch going and then it happened...i threw my back out. i lay in bed for a while and in comes nico, along with a temp. of 101!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE HECK!!!!! not for nothing though....i couldn't be happier!!!!!!!!!!! isn't this what motherhood is all about. there is a reason women are made to be mothers and not men. as i was laying in bed with my little guy, he reached for my hand and said "mom, i need you." then as i held him in my arms he looked up at me, with those sweet, big, brown, eyes and said "mom, i love you so much." i also realized how much i admire all those singles moms out there, and all those moms who's husbands are on the bishopric or have a calling in the stake, and manage to make it to church with their children every week. i am truly blessed to have such amazing women in my life. these women who i am proud to call my friends. they have been shinning examples to me. i am more than blessed to have my wonderful husband and my beautiful babies.ohhhhhhhh how much i love my babies!!!!!! now all i need to make this day better is a nice BIG piece of cheesecake!!!!!!!!!!! HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to all you WONDERFUL women!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
