Happy Mother's Day

I want to start off by saying that I feel like the luckiest mom in the world. I am able to spend the whole day with my 14 year old daughter and she wanted to hang out. I feel like our bond continues to get stronger as she get older and I am so pleased by this. This is something that did not happen with me and my mom.

I love and respect my mom but often wish our bond was stronger. This Mother's Day I hope she is having a great time spending time with my grandmother. Enough wishing for things that are not meant to be.

I am greatful for the gift of my daughter and the fact I get to spend all the moments that matter with her and my loving husband. Who happens to be terrible ill today. He feels so bad that I am covering the office shift today being that it's Mother's Day.

Being a mother and a wife is an everyday job and I feel that everyday could be Mother's day. If it was not for our children or our Mother's this day would not be. So I thank my mom for making the choice to be a mother and I thank my daughter for being the reason I try to improve myself everyday.

Happy Mother's Day to all those that are mother's.


So let me tell you how my Mother's Day started. I wanted to get to Michael's Craft Store right at open because they have a great deal on their 180 page scrapbook paper packs which are 60% and that makes them around $8.50 great deal right. So Natalie and I get there right before they open and we get what we need and head to the car. Here is where the morning took an ugly turn.

Well I looked the darn keys in the car. With Nate being sick and not really knowing anyone in Bloomington, I most certainly thought I was screwed. Then this truck full of construction workers came to the rescue and got the car unlocked. What a way to start the day. I finished my craft store running and now I am working until 9 pm. I will be spending all my time today with my daugther and I think we will play Yahtzee and just hang out.


These are the moments she will remember for a lifetime. I am very blessed to be a mother.
