"A Blessed Mother's Day"

I am thankful for Mother's day, for being a mom and my mom still being alive. Motherhood is something I couldn't wait to experience growing up.  I always thought the Lord would come back before I would be a mom.  I am thankful He has allowed me these last 27 years of life to see my children grow up and become the young adults they are today.  It was a blessing to be able to attend church today and see all the little babies being dedicated to the Lord.  No one can prepare you for how fast time goes by raising your children until it really happens.  I believe that is why grandparent hood is so special, because you appreciate the time and how fast it is fleeting and try to enjoy every moment with grandchildren. 

Jenna's parents invited our family over for lunch today.  Chuck, her dad, always does an amazing job of boiling crab legs, shrimp, potatoes and corn.  My appetite was so good today, that I ate more than I usually do and enjoyed every minute of it. 


After lunch we all went out on the lake in the Kerby's pontoon boat.  We couldn't have asked for a more peaceful relaxing day.  It was like God gave us the whole lake to ourselves and we all enjoyed time together.  What a blessing having the family together on such a special day.  Thank you Chuck and Mary for always making us feel so welcome and for the amazing meal that comes along with it.



"Today is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it."
