Mother's Day weekend was a really nice weekend. Skyler got baptized the Saturday before Mother's Day, so we loaded up the kids and spent the day in the bay area. His baptism wasn't until 4pm, so we met up with some of Jason's long time friends and had lunch at the park.
The kids were happy to run around together while we chatted and oohh-ed over their darling new baby.
We got to church just in time for a quick change of clothes in the bathroom and sat down just in time for the baptism. Sam baptized Skyler and we all felt Ronna's presence as he was confirmed a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Later Day Saints.
We spent the rest of the evening having dinner and visiting with family. It was a beautiful day.
The next day was Mother's Day. The kids made me breakfast in bed (Austin took a few pictures)
JessicaI got lots of very sweet cards and some yummy cupcakes!
I think Mother's Day is my favorite Sunday at church. :-) I love to hear the kids sing in the program and there are always great talks on motherhood. It always makes me want to be a better mother.
I know Mother's Day is supposed to be a day to celebrate mothers, but I just couldn't help feeling overwhelmed with gratitude for my kids. They are so incredibly good to me and I wouldn't know what to do without them. They are each so unique and incredible in their own way. I feel truly honored to be my children's mother.

you have great kids, that is certain. But I think part of that has to do with what a great Mom they have. :) love you!
