The Sweetest Gift

Last week while I was at Elizabeth's she took some pics for me with the grandkids for Mother's Day.    It was the sweetest gift. 

It was also an adventure with four kids. More specifically, it was an adventure with Nate Dog.

I don't think there were any "perfect" pictures taken at all.   Someone was always not looking.

But like I've told my girls for years..

Perfect is overrated anyways.

My sweet first born Rosalyn.

The one who made me a Honey.

Our deep thinker, quick witted, best dance moves, sometimes bossy, always sweet, doesn't forget a thing, soon to be first grader.

My precious Julia Rose.

The one who recalls every detail of her dreams and has the best morning conversations in the world.

She's our dreamer, peacemaker, left handed artist, deeply sensitive, romantic, funny,  almost kindergartner.

My Little Man Nate

The first grandson

He's our wild child, hilarious, full of energy, hard headed, keeps us humble, loves to lead, all boy,  soon to be fully potty trained (we hope)

My Darling little Hazel Jane

The baby and caboose of this crazy love train

Our little drooler, momma lover, chubby legged, loves to nurse, wiggle worm!

Can't wait to watch your little personality continue to emerge.

Paw Paw

The love of my life and my lover.

He's our wise rock, our problem solver, nurse of the family, the one with all the answers, the one who sees the very best in everyone. Especially me.

And My Dearest Elizabeth

The one who has had to put up with a momma basically growing up with her.

She's a giver,  people lover,  best listener,  deep feeler, patient momma and great friend

Thanks sweet love for always showing your momma grace.

And thank you for taking these pictures for me.

You are so incredibly talented.  I love you.

( For Elizabeth's sake please know that none of these pics are edited.  They are straight out the camera.  Momma was hasty. ;) )

And thank you for those of you who still actually come hang out with me here.

Seriously.  Y'all are the best.
