Belated Mother's Day Gratitude
I am so grateful to be a mom. And so grateful to have such a wonderful Mom and Mother-in-law, and good moms around me to watch and learn from. My cute husband and kids spoiled me this mother's day with breakfast in bed, flowers, chocolate, homemade cards (my fav!) and notes, and did I mention lots of chocolate? Could the day be any better? We had dinner with some friends and Tyler made everything so I could relax and enjoy being spoiled.
I am so grateful for Tyler. He is so good to me, and so thoughtful and patient, especially through my various mood swings :) He makes life exciting and is always making up some funny song about everything. On April Fool's Day I was trying to sneak food coloring into the bottom of the kids' cereal bowls to turn their milk each a different color, but the kids woke up too soon and I was about to get caught, when Tyler stepped up with an impromtu song and dance number to distract them out of the kitchen. It makes me laugh everytime I think about it.
The icing on the cake this mother's day was being pregnant--knowing that we will have another little one join our family in the next year makes my heart smile. So, there you have it--baby number 5 is due on Dec. 1st. And this time we are finding out what it is, so stay tuned!

Leilani, you are seriously one of the best Moms ever. I hope you have 20 kids because kids deserve a mom like you. Throw in the song and dance from Tyler and you've got yourself the complete package.
