Happy Birthday MOM!

I have the BEST mom in the world and yesterday was her birthday!

I am so blessed to have her as my mom and my children are so blessed to have her as a Grandma. It's hard not being able to celebrate special days like this with her but we celebrated her birthday over here in WA and thought of her all day. Jonathon called and sang her the happy birthday song, with added shouts, all by himself. It was so cute!

I love my beautiful mom with all my heart and I am so grateful for all that she has done for me, taught me, and for her love. Truly, once I became a mother, I finally understood her love for me, and for that I am so grateful. She is such a big light in my life, always positive and so full of fun! She truly lives her life to the fullest and I have looked up to her, and wanted to be like her since I was a little girl. She has sacrificed so much for our family and I will always admire that. She is so strong and courageous. Thank you mom, for my life, for your love, for your help (!!!), for being the best Grandma ever, and for being my best friend. Love you forever!

Caleb had his first day of church on Sunday as well! He did so well! We took this picture of him in his little cowboy outfit that my mom got him, in honor of her birthday, with thoughts of her in our smiles!
