Proud as a peacock

Althought I was sick on Mother's Day, the kids and Travis still took care of me. They made me beautiful cards, bought me Swiss chocolate, and shoes, and Travis cleaned the entire house in preparation for Nana to come. Bless him!
How blessed I am to have three wonderful, amazing, beautiful children that make me laugh every day. And of course, I couldn't be a mother without Travis. I am so blessed to have Travis as my husband. He is so amazing. He is my best friend and I love to be with him every moment. He is the band-aid for all of my owies.
I also feel blessed to have a grandmother who has taught me so much and is always an unbelievable example in patience, love, and eternal good attitude! We felt so lucky to have Nana here to celebrate her 86th birthday with her.
