So Blessed

I had a wonderful Mother's Day yesterday.
Gracie woke me up with breakfast in bed, and a very cute note. She is such a sweetie. That is the best way to wake up.

My family spoiled me all day long. They also got me a new toy. I'm so excited! Thanks guys.



I really do feel so blessed. I know I am so lucky to get to be the Mom to Kyle and Gracie. It am so thankful for them. They are just the best. 
I am also so thankful for my Mom and all the sacrifices she has made for her family. Especially for her testimony of Christ and continually teaching me to pray. Thanks Mom.

I love this quote from Harold B. Lee: “the most important … work you will ever do will be within the walls of your own homes” 

I hope that all of you women had a wonderful Mother's Day. Even if you don't have children of your own. You're still a Mother. I am grateful for all of the women who have touched my life.

You will love your Kindle ... my dgtr gave me one at Christmas and I love it. How very generous and what a very proud Mom you must be ... not because of the gift but because of your dgtr's testimony. Being a Mom IS our most important job.

I'm glad you had a wonderful mother's day! And that looks like a very fun gift. So easy to take around with you while you're busy being a mom!

What a precious post, Allie - I love the quote. How easy it is to forget when you're wiping the kitchen counter for the 35th time that day.

A Kindle - oh you are blessed, lol! What fun!
