Like flowers in the springtime, so colorful and bright
Like Happy songs of Bluebirds, that fill the air with cheer
A person bright and lovely and is my mother dear.
While I was talking to my mom on Mother's Day, I couldn't help but wonder out loud how she stayed sane with 9 kids. I struggle everyday just being nice sometimes, with 2. I realize now, of course the older I get, how wonderful my mother REALLY is. She still teaches me by word and example and I really want to be like her.
Tonight Rook said his prayer and then said, Mom, I want to sing you a song. He sang this Primary song to me and knew every word. I actually think of my kids when I hear the words, except the last phrase. I love these pictures of my kids and if I could put into words how wonderful they are, I think those words would paint them just like this.

They are so cute!
I know what you mean, my mom had seven and everyday I wonder how she did it so calmly and beautifully.
LOVE your family photos.
And, I'm totally with you on the kid topic. I babysat an extra two-year-old yesterday. Two two-year-olds is too much for me. I found myself watching the clock and counting the minutes until I could go back to just one. I'm terrible. I'm pretty sure I'm less than half the woman my mother of six is.
I have started thinking mom is pretty incredible these last couple of months! I have thought that a lot actually. Your kids are very cute and sweet. I love those pictures too. You are a great mom:)
