HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Today I want to wish my son, Jared, a very Happy Birthday!!!!

We are so proud of you and the wonderful husband and father you have grown into.  Thanks for blessing our lives and for your love and kindness.  We hope this day is wonderful and filled with all the love that we all have for you!!!!

I also want to wish Julianna a belated birthday wish too.  We celebrated with her and in my busy days, I never got around to posting a happy birthday wish for her.  We love you so much and are so grateful for your love and the wonderful influence you are to us.

Blessings of Daughters

I just wanted to let all my daughters know how grateful I am for each of them!
Julianna, Janet, Kelli, Elena, Kacie and Aimee - you are all amazing and I am blessed to have each of you in my life. 

To my three married girls - you are all amazing wives!  Julianna and Janet a special thank you to both of you for blessing my boys and taking over loving and caring for them.  You three girls are and will be great moms!!!  I love my grandsons and the many more grandchildren that will come.  I will do my best to be the best grandma I can be.

All 6 of you girls are living in a time where being a wife, mother, and daughter are hard.  The world has drifted away from the greatest joys of being a women.  Continue to stay close to the teachings of Christ.  I have loved every moment of my life (even with all of my imperfections) because of my ability to serve, love and support my family in whatever capacity I could.  We've had moments of sorrow and frustrations, but all those moments are washed out due to the many more memories of laughter, fun and silliness that takes place in a family.

Keep up the great job you are doing in your families!!!!  To my three girls at home, your are awesome and I appreciate all you do for me and all that you are learning to one day bless your own families.

Quote for the Day

Aimee came and sat down for dinner and out of the blue asked this question -

"Who's busier, mom or Jesus?"

I assured her that Jesus was.

Happy Birthday Brian!!

It is a wonderful day

 and we want to wish

Brian 

 Happy Birthday !!!

We love you Brian and want you to know how grateful we are for your great influence in all of our lives.   Celebrate well today and enjoy the beginning of a new sememster!  You are a great man who is loved by so many!
