~ The beautiful earrings given to me from my husband. They are a brilliant aquamarine blue, Jacqueline's birthstone. I love them and they just happen to match everything that I wear! I find that I try to wear my hair in a pony tail as often as possible just to show them off.
~ The very quiet moment during Mass (in a small country church that had possibly 25 people) when Jackie let out a very large and loud burp. I think even the priest chuckled a little along with the rest of the congregation.
~ The look on my mom's face when she opened the card that told her the I-Pad we got her would be arriving shortly in the mail. She is so excited!
~ Morning brunch with biscuits and gravy, french toast bake, poppy seed bread, coffee, juice. Yum!
~ The call from my brother wishing me a happy Mother's Day.
~ Jackie sleeping almost the entire way to Halstead for Weber Mother's Day lunch.
~ Ethan proudly carrying the baby around when she got fussy, and everyone telling us how beautiful she is.
~ Mother's Day dinner at Ethan's brother's house. Yummy grilled veggies, chicken and steak. Angel food cake with strawberries for dessert.
~ Finally getting little Jackie to sleep after a very long day, and enjoying a full night sleep!
I am so blessed to have such a wonderful life. I knew for a very long time that God called me to be a wife and mother. There is nothing greater in life than fulfilling God's will. I continue to pray for the wisdom and guidance to live the life He wanted for me, and to always remember the great things He has blessed me with.
