this mothers day,

I am grateful for...

Kids that enjoy watersports like mom and dad

boys that fight over who gets to sit on mom

silly walks that make everyone walking by giggle

cousins that are inseparable, even while sleeping

a niece who lets me play with her hair

a boy who still falls asleep on his momma

and eats his veggies

even though his brother does not

a Papa who was strong and courageous and heroic

the EMS guys who quickly arrived at our house when Kayden was very sick

and the medicine that made him all better almost instantly

impromptu band performances

superheroes

sea world

bathtubs
