That's a great gift...

For my first official Mother's Day as Maycee's mom this is what she gave me...



Its gonna be hard to top that one in the next couple years! I can't believe she is already walking...so fun but so scary! I love her and am so glad that she is mine and that she is the reason I am a mommy!


I took Maycee to visit her grandma at the cemetery and she was so good while I cleaned up a bit! I know that Maycee already knows my mom and even though its sad that I can't see them together here on earth, I know they played a lot together before she sent Maycee down to be with me. Even though I had such a short time with my mom, I haven't stopped learning about being a mom from her and I know she's helping me from far away...I love you MOM!!

Just had to throw in this pic of my amazing grandmother!! She has been such a rock in my life and I don't know if I would have survived those teenage years with out her! She has stepped up to the plate many times in the last 16 years to help me when I really needed my mom! I love you grandma!!

I am so grateful for all the "mothers" in my life. My mother-in-law Tami has been so great to make me just another daughter and I am so glad we have such a wonderful relationship. My step-mom Annette has had a hard run inheriting 7 new kids and she has done a great job. All my friends and sister-in-laws, you are all great and such great examples of mothers!
