My First Mother's Day!

I got to celebrate my first Mother's Day as a Mommy this year! It was wonderful!  We decided to surprise my Mom and take a trip up to Mass to visit them for the day.  They were having a little gathering down at the camp so we popped in and surprised everyone!  Even though I have always appreciated and loved my mom so dearly, it wasn't until God made ME a Mom that I can truly truly relate and appreciate all my mom has done and continues to do.  Thank you Mom so much for your loving and caring heart.  You mean the world to me!  Sadly, I don't have any pictures of the two of us!

Got ahold of them!

Took the sock off!

Ah ha!  She got it!!  Danika = not happy!

Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful Moms out there, especially those who have made such a special impact on my life!

Children, obey your parents in the Lord, because this is right. Honor your father and mother which is the first commandment with a promise - that it may go well with you and that you may have a long life. ~Ephesians 6:1-3
