Grandma's Birthday

You know that old saying that you don't REALLY appreciate your mother until you have children of your own.  Well that tends to be the case for me.  Sure I've always loved my mother, but only after I had my first child was I truely able to appreciate all of the sacrifices that she's made for me.  My heart almost burst with the amount of love that I had for Jordan so I understood what unconditional love really felt like.  Thank you Mom for everything you have done for me.  You are a wonderful example of the kind of mother I want to be for my children.  I take all of your words of wisdom to heart and am so blessed to be able to call you Mom.

 Wednesday was my Mom's birthday!  She came over and we all had family dinner together.  I cooked and I'm not sure how great it was because I was so stuffed up that I could hardly taste or smell anything.  Aunt Liz brought dessert.  We had angel food cupcakes with strawberry buttercream frosting.  Yum!  Some of them even had chocolate covered strawberries on top.  Delaney helped sing Happy Birthday to Grandma and spit blew out her candle.  So precious.

Hope you had a wonderful birthday Mom!  We all love you so much!
