Call up mama when all else fails....

The words in this Blake Shelton song (me and my songs....I know, I know) hit pretty close to home all the time, like a few days ago when I was having a very emotional (when I say emotional, I mean break-down in the middle of the park) kind of day.  When I got home, I called my mom, still crying, and by the end of our conversation, I was all smiles.  What an awesome feeling to know that you have a person in your life that can always make everything better and always has.  My mom has been my rock.  She has supported every decision good or bad that I have made and has always been my Number 1 fan.  My mom "gets me" when sometimes no one else does.  We share a lot of the same characteristics and personality traits, so we very easily relate to things and understand where the other one is coming from.  She has played a huge part in making me the woman I am today. 

Not only did I get lucky in the mom department, but I got extremely lucky in the MIL department.  Bryan's mom is an incredible lady who has made Bryan the awesome man he is today.  I thank God for her.  She made me the husband I always wanted.  Our moms are two of the most unselfish people I know.  They would do ANYTHING for us.  I hope that Parker feels the unconditional love from me that Bryan and I feel from our moms.  

Thank you Mom and MIL for setting such a good example for the kind of mother I want to be.  Happy Mother's Day.  



Happy Mother's Day to all the other amazing ladies in our life: grandmas, step-mom, aunts, cousins, friends. I am surrounded by amazing mothers. I can't wait to share this experience with you all.
