happy mothers day

this is my first mothers day and it has been such a wonderful day. i am so grateful for henry and campbell. they are my world. i love that i get to be their mama. i am so grateful for them and my amazing husband. i love my little family! 

even though being a mom is the hardest job at time it is the most rewarding. i love these two so much. i love watching them grow and learn new things. they are quickly becoming less of babies and more of kids. before i know it they will be walking and talking. thank you henry and campbell for making me a mama and showing me how much i can love someone and thank you to my heavenly father for sending me these two babies to love and raise. 

i wish you all a wonderful mothers day. i love all the mamas in my life you have all helped me become the best mom i can be!

i have a special place in my heart for mother's day. you see i have my momma, but then i have a step mom too. both these women have helped me grow into the woman i am today. my mom and heather {my step mom} are amazing examples of what kind of mother i want to be. i love them both so much! 

earlier this week, i was feeling a little down for a few reasons. one,  my momma is so far away in ca and i wont be with her today. two, i thought i would be pregnant by now and on my way to being a mom myself. i am not and felt sad. after several days of prayer and much needed talks with hubby i am okay with it. i know my time i will come. i will have many mother's days where i get to be celebrated. until then i will celebrate all the mom's in my life who have been amazing examples to me. the last thing that makes me a little sad is something that really hasn't effected me til recently. {mom, this might make you cry...sorry!} is not having my mom's mom here with us anymore. {she passed away when i was in 7th or 8th grade} there are so many things i wish she were here for. i think of how if she were still alive we could visit her often as orem is not that far from me now, or how dan and her would probably be best friends. it's times like these i am so grateful for my knowledge of the gospel. i know my grandma do do {doreen} is waiting for us and we will see her again someday. 

now, that i am married i get to add one more mom to that list. my wonderful mother in law susan. i really lucked out in that department. i hear some crazy stories of mother in laws who aren't very nice to their daughter in laws. oh boy, i feel blessed to have susan in my life. she is always there for me to give me great advice or to help us in anyway. she really is the best. i love her! 

&& finally, i want to say thank you to all those who i have come in contact with in my life who showed me what it is to be a mother. grandmas {thankful i have more than 1}, friends, young women leaders, aunts, cousins, blog friends and even strangers. i am a better person because of you all. 

so, today is your special day {really everyday should be} the hubby and i wish you all a happy mother's day and we love you all! 

happy mother's day

{me, momma, and my mom mom's grandma do do}

i am so grateful for all the women in my life who are great examples of amazing mothers. 

you know who you all are. i love each and everyone of you. can't wait for the day i get 

to experience the love a mother can have for a child. i know for some this weekend is hard if you are not yet a mother. erika from te and baby wrote a beautiful post to you all. i couldn't have said it better myself. i wish you all a happy mother's day!
