I Love Being a Mom!!

Yesterday was just a great day. I was surrounded by those I love! Blake, Caden and Lexi each made me a card and they were so awesome! Morgan is doing a joint mother and father's day gift so I don't know what that is yet. Ricker forgot it was mother's day so at 7:oo Sunday morning, I received a text from him: ( he had to work the weekend)

I had a terrible thought last night

My heart ached as I worked and pondered my plight

I stressed and wondered how to make things right

But alas too late to show a little foresight

You might wonder by now to what I refer

I'm thinking not of a 'what' but really a 'her'

She's tender and pretty and kind of demure

The mom of my kids, my sweet Lammyfur

So why do I worry for heaven's sake

She's my little wife I'll never forsake

'cause she tends to give and I tend to take

It might just be true that I am a flake

I thought once or twice early last week

You should find her a gift to hide and then seek

But I got very busy, my memory was weak,

So now I feel lousy, like an ungrateful geek

So I wrote her this poem, it's all I could do

She's the best in my life, twill always be true

The fountain of life as our family grew

The light and the hope of that family too

I've said at least a part of what I could say

The cloth of our family would certainly fray

Our life without her would always be grey

We thank Heaven for MomElena each day!

I mean really! I was on cloud nine the rest of the day. My girls thought it was so romantic! I really am blessed to be doing what I always hoped to be doing when I grew up. I think in part thanks to my own mother who made motherhood and wifehood look so enjoyable. My kids are such a joy and inspiration to me. I am thankful everyday for them and the opportunity and trust my Heavenly Father gave me to guide them on their journey!
