Quote for the Day

A few Christmases ago, my grandmother gave me a little flip calendar -- "Words to Warm a Mother's Heart." I love it and have faithfully flipped the pages each day, restarting it each year ... until this past February. On the 25th of that month, I came across a page that I just couldn't bear to turn, it rings so true to me and never fails to make me smile. I thought I'd share today in hopes of making you smile, too.

"The joy of motherhood: What a woman experiences when all the children are finally in bed." -- Barbara Johnson

Can I get an AMEN??

I think I even told Tanner today that I couldn't wait to put him to bed. In my defense, he was a total crankster all day. Still, it wasn't one of my finer moments. Enjoy these few pics of some of our better moments these past few days.

I love seeing the pics of the boys playing together. At the end of the day, that makes it all worth while, doesn't it?! Landon's smile is so big in the one picture, it's cute seeing his teeth!
