As I was riding my bike this morning on this beautiful morning I had many thoughts running through my head.
1) I love my family and friends that help me surviving being a mom and wife. The other day I was at a resturant with my family celebrating my cousins graduations. As I was trying to keep my two year old from tearing the place apart and my 7 month old from pulling all the food off the table my sweet aunt told me I was doing a great job and that I needed to give my self more credit and that God gave me these boys for a reason. That made my night. At that moment I didn't need to hear all the things I was doing wrong and what I should try and do better. I need someone to validate my mothering because believe me it is harder than I thought.
2) Even though I am not in school I love the feeling of the last day of school and the anticipation for summer. I love Memorial Day weekend as the first weekend of the summer. I love being with family visiting cemetaries with all the pretty flowers and having a BBQ. As a kid growing up Memorial Day was spent at Cottonwood Complex in SLC watching my dad play fastpitch softball. Loved it and still love watching a good game of softball.

My other friend just wrote about this. She received inspiration that she was given the kids she was because she was the best fit for them. She was their best chance. It is harder than we all thought I think. There are days I can't believe God trusted me with these little people. It's a good thing they are so forgiving.
Shanie! I haven't been on here forever! Great thread. You are one of the most uplifting and optimistic people I know. Even though you don't say much, the things you say inspire me. I love you!
THanks for always sharing your thoughts with everyone. It's good to know that I am not the only one who needs uplifting and who feels stressed out. Your so great. I love you to death. I just wish I could see you in person more:)
