Mothers Day this year was great one. I woke up and came down stairs to find beautiful tulips from Addison, notes and posters from Ada and Avery. As we were getting ready for church, Ammon asked me if I had left my computer on from the night before. I went to check and found it on with a couple of "e-cards" waiting for me along with the book "Praise Of Stay-at-Home Moms". I am not the biggest fan of Dr. Laura, but the fact that we ( stay at home moms) are praised and he wanted to show me how much he appreciated it, meant a lot. Technically, I do work. I am so fortunate that my job is at the school with my children and I am home every minute that they are. I run them to their activities and I help them with their homework. I am so thankful for the job I have, that it allows me do this. I am also thankful for a husband that has provided so well that I don't have to worry about needing to work. I work because I love kids and I love helping in the schools anyway. Trust me- It's not for the money ( we are so underpaid) I am learning so much and have a TREMENDOUS appreciation for educators. It is not the easiest job and it is so underpaid.
Ammon fixed a wonderful meal for dinner that we were able to share with my parents( I forgot to get pictures of the guest of honor- MY MOM). The kids love having them over. Grandpa told stories to Ada as they snuggled on the hammock, we did a small sewing project for mom and we visited and spent some time together. The weather was perfect. To top the day off, we got the kids to bed around 9:00 then Ammon and I snuggled up and watched a movie. Thanks for a great day family. I love you all very much and I am so fortunate to be a mom of the best three kids ever and married to my best friend.

You are indeed blessed, a loving husband, loving kids, and the opportunity to spend time with them when you want and when they need you. Thanks for inviting us over for dinner and letting us be a part of your family too.
We love you all and always will,
Grandpa Bart
