Remembering Mothers

Mothering the gifts from God which lead you into motherhood. They give me joy and happiness. Without them I would not of grown into the person I am today.

Thank you my children for becoming loving beautiful adults.

You make me proud! My babies...Kristin, Rebecca, Jared, and Stephen
This brought memories of other mothers whom touch my life. The above picture is my great grandmother, Ella, grandmother, Oda Alice along with my mother, Ava.
A day shared with them all along with Papa Roy and my Dad.
Also my brother (whom just had a birthday this week), my sisters enjoying time at our grandparents home in Clarkdale. Where delicious food and homemade bread was always found to fill our tummies. Much Laughter shared on the backporch, where we always heard fun stories and hugs.
This was a treasured picture for sure, as I am holding my first child, Kristin whom is enjoying time with four generations of mothers!



Another favorite moment in time... me, my mother and sister, Brenda.
Thanks you mother for the love you shared and memories of all those moments of joy and laughter.
Happy Mother's Day to all who touch child's life forever.

Easter Fun Hunt

It was a day that did show beautiful sunshine! A day for a first egg hunt with a great granddaughter. An Elmo Easter basket to nestle the found eggs. Elmo is one of her favorite characters. Hmmm... she calls me Elmo.

That early am, she was sitting on my lap as I was finishing up one last prize for the hunt. It was the final stitches on the Crazy Quilt pillow. I was explaining about stitching to her... and I asked her if she stitch? Little Laura said, "I color."

The beginning of the egg hunt across the acres started with a few less members this year, but still had anxiously waiting members to see who would be the winner.

Being a later time in April this year did give more growth to the grass and wildflowers of the timber to hide the eggs. Even though we used less camouflage colored ones this year... a few were left hidden in the woods to find next year.

The grand prize winners found a tie with Joella and Kealah!

First time for the granddaughters and very happy to say they won.

Thanks family for another wonderful Easter Celebration
