I have to say I had a WONDERFUL day!!! My greatest gifts are these 5 kids I have, I feel so blessed to be called their mom, I love them so so much. It was an especilly special gift to have a new baby for this mothers day, what a treat.
Well Joe and the kids made the day so special. Kyle was so excited to give me his present he had made at school, he wrote me the cutest card and made me a jewlery box, Kambree also made me a card at school and was so excited to give it to me, I loved that they were so excited to share with me how much they love me, it was fun to get sweet little gifts from my kids.
Joe gave me so very meaningful presents ones I will cherish forever. First he made me a DVD from shutterfly with tons of our family pictures on it so you can play it on your TV and just watch pictures kind of like a screen saver it is really cool and I loved it. The other thing he gave me that I was so so excited about was a picture of Elizabeth Horracks Jackson (the pioneer we named Brittlee after). My mom had given us a picture for Christmas and I loved it but it was not the one I first saw that really intrigued me and made me want to get to know her story (the picture I saw hanging in the Martin center when we went on trek it was that next day after I had asked my mom about her story and read about her that I had that strong feeling there was a girl that would come to my home and I needed to name her after this amazing woman). I had told Joe I wanted that picture and then told him not to worry about it cause my mom was going to get if for me. When it ended up being the wrong picture of her he went a head and found the one that I love and bought it for me. I was so excited I just started crying when I saw it, I had no idea he had gotten it and it was so special to me and meant so much. The kids were wondering why I was crying so I told them her story and they thought that was so neat. Just a very sweet special experience for me.
This is the picture it is kind of hard to see but it is beautiful along with my five greatest presents:)
What a sweet present to have a new baby
