Mothers

MOTHERS

Real Mothers don't eat quiche;
They don't have time to make it.

Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils
Are probably in the sandbox.

Real Mothers often have sticky floors,
Filthy ovens and happy kids.

Real Mothers know that dried play dough
Doesn't come out of carpets.

Real Mothers don't want to know what
The vacuum just sucked up.

Real Mothers sometimes ask 'Why me?'
And get their answer when a little voice says, 'Because I love you best..'

Real Mothers know that a child's growth is not measured by height or years or grade...
It is marked by the progression of Mommy to Mom to Mother...

14 YEARS OF AGE - Naturally, Mother doesn't know that, either.

16 YEARS OF AGE - Mother? She's hopelessly old-fashioned.

18 YEARS OF AGE - That old woman? She's way out of date!

25 YEARS OF AGE - Well, she might know a little bit about it!

35 YEARS OF AGE - Before we decide, let's get Mom's opinion.

45 YEAR S OF AGE - Wonder what Mom would have thought about it

Summer is coming!

Today we had a great afternoon in the sun. The pool should've been open this weekend, but it wasn't, so we had to make due... The boys had a great time with a broken slip-n-slide and a sprinkler. We enjoyed the beautiful weather and grilled some sausage and BBQ chicken. I love family days like this!

The Angels Celebrated!

Jeremy had the wonderful priveledge of leading Jackson to Christ last Saturday night. Jackson went to tell the pastor at our church and will be baptised this summer. We couldn't be more thrilled with the wonderful choice that Jackson has made.

Random shots

Spring Break gave us time to visit some family. We spent a few days in Conroe with Jeremy's family. We took the boys to see her first 3-D IMAX film on Sharks and to the Lego Store at the Baybrook Mall. They had a great time seeing new things and we had a great time as a family.

Those boys were busy making a hideout...using whatever they could find.

Ryan finally decided he could drive the gator. He had been a little scared of it until this trip.
