Mother's Day!

This Mother's Day I feel so very blessed.  Not only do I get to claim mommy to Saige, now I am mommy to Saige and Swayzee.  I never really thought about what that would mean when I was pregnant with Swayzee.  My life feels whole.  I feel like a real family.  I feel complete.  

I had such a wonderful day with my girls and family.  Saige had to pick out flowers for me at the store (Daddy said it was her idea).  They were bright and cheery, exactly what I would expect from my vibrant little child.  

We finally found the time to get everyone dressed up and go take a few family pictures.  We just ran up to the park with the digital camera and a tripod, REAL family pictures will come later this summer (when I drop 30 lbs ;)).  They aren't professional, but they are still beautiful to me.  This is the best Mother's Day gift I could have asked for.  

Being Mommy is the most challenging and rewarding job in the world.  Motherhood is filled with hard times and happy times, but EVERY single moment is worth it.  There is absolutely nothing that can touch your heart like being a mother.  

I love my girls more than life itself, and wouldn't give up a single second as their Mommy.
