First Mother's Day

My first Mother's Day was amazing, I feel so blessed to be loved and appreciated by my husband and family. What better gift than to have Mother's Day pictures taken?! I will treasure these pictures forever!

We started the day with our Mother's Day photo shoot which was in Circle C- very close to where I grew up. So after the pictures we drove around and visited the house where I hold my most treasured childhood memories. I reminisced with my husband about all of the amazing things my mother did for me as a child. I miss that sweet house. But even more I miss my mother. Christmas and Mother's Day have always been the hardest for me, however I would say this was by far the most amazing Mother's Day since her passing. Which I intend to share eventually. After our drive down memory lane we ventured home and Jimmy grilled steaks for lunch- my favorite. We ended the day with family. Let me just say God knew: I needed amazing in-laws. He knew: I needed a tight knit family. He knew: I needed an amazing mother in-law. She has been a true mother to me and has always treated as her own daughter. It brings me to tears every time I think about having her in my life. The loss of my mother is not as painful and I'm blessed to have someone that I can share milestones with, turn to when I have a bad day, seek wisdom from in times of tribulation, call upon when I'm sick or need advice on motherhood. I am forever grateful for our relationship. 

I am so thankful to be a MOM, something I've dreamed about my whole life and to be a mommy to Little A has been the best thing to ever happen to me. Motherhood is the BEST job there is.

Jimmy also gifted me with a diaper-less day and this book which I've been dying to get my hands on!

Beautiful flowers and cards from my in-laws.

A big thank you to my family and my hubby for spoiling me on Mother's Day! I love you guys to the moon and back. I hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day celebrating yourself or the mothers in your life.
