(Kanyon taking a horsey ride on my back)Mother's Day this year was great. In years past, I have struggled with this holiday because I felt undeserving of it. But this year, I asked Josh to please not buy me anything, and instead do a requested service for me. I didn't want to have to work that weekend, so he did my job for me. It was the nicest gift ever, and I was able to spend time relaxing and enjoying time with my family! And because of that, I loved Mother's Day this year. So thank you, Josh! And thanks Ammon, Jonah, and Micah for being good helpers!

This made me laugh! I love those boys!
I think that was the cutest thing I have read in a long time. Your boys are so adorable and you and Josh are such great parents. You totally are deserving of celebrating Mother's Day every year. I have watched you and see all you do. You are amazing. We just love your family.
