Happy Mother's Day!



Happy Mother's Day, everyone. Isn't this a beautiful collection of moms. I am impressed every day at the capacity for love and service that moms have. Of course, Shauna impresses me the most, but I hope you understand my bias. Every day Shauna does something that makes a difference in the lives of our children, and for me. It amazes me every time I see it. I am sure that your children and husbands see it the same way I do.

Abraham Lincoln said that "everything I am or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother". I am grateful for the mothers of this family.

How beautiful!!! Happy Mother's Day to all of our beautiful girls. You are the epitome of lovely, young motherhood and we are so thankful that you are ours and that your children are ours! We pray that the Lord will bless you and help you in your most important of all careers, motherhood.
We're going to print this picture and put it up in our house.
We love you all so much.
Happy Mother's Day.

Im expecting someone to take me for the block (tick tac toe) I feel like I am the Woopie of the Biggs Squares game show!! Perks of being 5 1/2! Thanks Nathen.

I just wanted to tell you all that you are great wives and mothers - so patient and loving. I have learned a lot from each one of you. I wish I lived around you (again), but that doesn't seem to be in the cards (AZ Cards ?!) for us. You still influence me for good from afar. Love ya! Shauna

I guess better to be woopie then bobbie brady! Yeah thanks Nathan that was really nice of you to remember us all. It's weird to think that I am at the stage to be ranked as a mother but I must say it has been a nice day. Thanks Tyson! Happy Mother's Day to you all too. I'm lucky because I got to learn from all of you, and still get to ask you all questions So thank you all! Love you lots!

Actually, Erika, it was inspired by the Brady Bunch because Nathan wanted to be Mike the architect when he was growing up. But I think it's one of Nathan's best blog works. He stressed about it since women are sensitive creatures.

This is one of the most gorgeous pictures of Mother's I have see. I am glad our son's were so wise in the choices they made for companions--and grateful that you daughters allowed them to make those choices. Mom and I have been blessed so much by all of you and your families that you will probably never know. When you see all of the wonderful children you have blessed us with you can begin to see the witness of what I am saying. We love you all deeply and you are always in our thoughts and prayers.
We hope you had a very special Mother's Day.
Mom & Dad

Once again I am a few days late in my responce, but I was busy being a mom. Analynn was up all night Sat. night throwing up. Every ten to fifteen min. So my Mothers Day started out very tired. I was going to stay home with Analynn until Devynne found out and she wanted to stay so I could enjoy the Mothers Day celebration at church and be there for Daniel to be set apart as Elders Quorm Pres. It was very nice except they changed their minds on the setting apart. The rest of the day was nice with Daniel and the kids making dinner, playing games, foot massage, flowers, cards, and chocolate, (and Analynn was better). Nathan, Thanks for thinking of all of us on Mothers Day. I think this family has some pretty awesome moms and I'm glad to be included with you all. Happy belated Mom's Day!
Love,Connie
