i'm a lucky girl to be so blesssed!

dad's woman and all his little future mothers

mother's day growing up was always something to look forward to. my dad always made mother's day something so special not just for my mother, who deserves a month of celebration...at least 12 days but for all his little future mothers. after serving the mother of all we too would get our breakfast in bed. the boys always had to do the dishes and keep us girls happy and relaxed! i always felt so special on this day... not because i've always been a mother but because i've always known that being a mother is something to be celebrated. i knew that some day i would have the honor of being that to some heavenly sent children of God. i feel so lucky that i married a man that values my divine role like dad does. babe is so good about allowing my life and  full time job as mama to his babies possible. he celebrate this role that i have chosen. he respects me and supports me. he is patience while i'm learning. he loves me and makes me feel like i'm the most beautiful thing he's laid eyes on. he makes me feel like a queen! what a lucky girl i am.

the mother of all... my mom. i could dedicate an entire blog to her and never run out of reasons, stories and example why i want to be a mother exactly like her. she is the perfect example of selfless mothering. she is always there to help for whatever ridiculous request her children throw at her and not because she doesn't want to say no, but it isn't in her to even think of a reason not to. her testimony in the gospel is rock solid. she turns the other cheek to every one... even if they robbed her "un"safe blind! 

her example of being Christ like is inspiration to me.

she is my one of my best friends in the whole wide world and there is no other person i would want to drive all over central florida hitting up every tj maxx and marshalls with than her! 

i love that lady. i'm lucky to have her as my mom and friend.

marie louise haught

the grand marie. she is a woman that i am thankful for everyday! after all, she is the mother that raised the perfect man for me. because of her mothering and teaching i have the husband of my dreams. she taught him the importance of respecting me, loving me, valuing me and his children. she taught him the importance of honoring his priesthood and being worthy to serve and bless his family. she taught him to value is education. she taught him how to cook, clean and how to work hard. this mother's day i was especially grateful for her and all the hard, selfless sacrifices that she made raising 7 kids. She a woman that i look up to and value the advice she gives. If only i could spend more time with her... i'm sure i would be a better mother/woman. i'm a lucky girl to have her as an inspiring mother in my life.

not only do i have 2 impeccable examples of mothers to look to but i have sisters and sister-in-laws that i find so much comfort and support in. they are right here in the grind of those hard day and in the glory of the great ones. i love being able to laugh, cry and vent to these ladies. they all have attribute in there mothering that i want. every woman/mother should be able to pool from these great sissy that i have... it would only be fair. between all of them there had been every situation to be had and priceless advice to be given. there has been complete joy, loss, infertility, miracles, multiple babies, unexpected surprises, potty training, sleep training, just plain training, cooking, cleaning, cheering, discipling, budgeting, blowing, disappointment and complete satisfaction. anything thing i could ever experience has or will happen to one of them. i'm such a lucky girl to have these strong ladies to got through all of it with.

i went to post my feelings yesterday and decided no... its mother's day, i don't have to if i don't want to. today is a day to relax and that is exactly to the T of what i did.

i felt like a million bucks all day!
