Motherhood

I just wanted to post some pictures of me and my sweet little girl Natalie as a tribute to Mother's Day.  I feel so blessed to be her mother.  Especially over the past few months, I have gained a new appreciation for motherhood and have realized that each baby is a miracle from our Heavenly Father.  I hope that I can be as good of a mother to Natalie as my mom was to me.  My mom has 14 children-the youngest is still under one year old.  She is an amazing woman!  I wish I had her patience.  I really appreciate all that she does for her family.  Raising a family is a lot of work, but it is so worth it!


This is my mom and two of my little sisters.

You're mom is amazing. You're so lucky to have her example. She has also raised amazing kids, and I'm sure you're a wonderful mom, but I think it's always hard to match up to our own mothers. I don't know how my mom did it either. Moms are just awesome. I hope my kids think I'm great, they do now because they are still too little to really know, but hopefully when they are older they will still feel the same way.
