mother's day 2019

 

These pictures very much describe what it is like to be a mother to our children. It's chaotic, busy, crazy...but so fun and there's definitely a lot of laughter. (Rudger really wanted a picture where he was popping out. I love that boy!) It's all I ever wanted and although it brings a lot of exhausting days and tears, it is THE very most rewarding job there ever was. And I couldn't be happier. 

In primary, the song leader gave each of the kids a package of m&ms with some things to talk about with their moms. The kids were SO excited about it. Adeline couldn't wait to come home and eat them!

I was excited to warm up the grill for the season and have a charcuterie board as well as raspberry lemonade! The lilacs are perfect right now, so they were a must for the table. 

We loved having Justin's parents join us for dinner. Justin's mom is so sweet and always amazing at being so helpful when she is in our home!

I love my mom, Justin's mom, the other mom's in my life that are a huge influence in my life. I love the kids who made me a mother and the man who is by my side on this motherhood journey!
