Ode to the mothers

my mom and then the day i became a mother. i don't have anything too deep to say this mother's day. i'm tired and worn out. jade's always throwing me curve balls but i see into her spirit more all the time. it's secretly rewarding. some days the rewards stay secret, very secret. other days your eyes open to see what it is you are really taking part in. "mother, i love you, mother i do. Father in heaven has sent me to you." -sung by the primary children today. the love is unfathomable.

i finally have a little shelf for my treasured dolls made by grandma jeannie. they sit just above jade's crib. a thousand dreams and fantasies of a little girl reside in these dolls. now i play house with a real baby:) i just wish she didn't have to scream the few hours before she went to bed every night. grandma, you are such a special lady. i miss you a lot.
