A Tribute

Mother's Day weekend was a pretty good weekend. I got to spend time with my mom, grandmother, and of course, my kids.
I do believe I have the best mom ever. She is so unselfish and giving. She has taught me so much about being a mother. I remember when I brought Carlie home. I was scared to death and had NO idea what to do with her! My mom was always there to help. And it wasn't just with Carlie. She has always been there for anything I needed. She also buys me stuff!
My grandmother has also been a great influence in my life. I've watched her serve others my whole life. She is a doer...it's just what she does! I love that my kids still have a great-grandmother that is so active in their life.
I can't think of mothers without thinking of Carl's mom. She is a very strong anf talented woman. I am thankful that she raised such a loving and caring son (even if he does need to be re-taught daily to put the toilet lid back down ).  I wish that she lived closer so she could be more involved. I know the kids could learn lots from her too.
And last, but certainly not least..my Grandma Martha. She has been gone for almost 10 years now. She was a very kind woman. She never had a lot of earthly possessions, but she always seemed content. I think of her often and smile. I miss her.... She was a great mother and grandmother.
So that is my tribute to all of the special mother's in my life! I love you all and pray daily that I can be like you!
Much Love,
Beth

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
