On Saturday when I got to Amy's house, I found this surprise. Nolan had a florist deliver this beautiful arrangement of miniature roses and lilies in a porcelain cup and saucer. It is quite lovely and it still doing beautiful even after almost a week. Thanks Nolan, that was very special and a wonderful surprise.Sorry for all the separate posts, but I am having trouble with blogger deleting the photos after I get them up, so I had to do one photo per post, but you get the message that my mother's day was really great. I got to talk to each one of my children which was really special. Andrew even called me from Iraq and sent me a music card which I received on Saturday, but haven't made a photo of it yet. I love you all so much and am so blessed to have you all as my children..thanks for being my greatest blessings.

Woo-hoo! Hooray for the return of Mom's blog!
Dad, those flowers are gorgeous! Good job!
That was a good idea of Amy's for the brag book. Nice to have something like that to show off.
Gotta love blogger sometimes! I've had a few issues of my own. Oh well. I'm so glad you posted again--all those separate posts can just make up for the lack of posts before.
Oh, and for anyone who would like, in the brag book I did put a baby photo and a current photo of each grandchild but a few kids I didn't have baby photo's of (Adrian and Ashley, and Brody and Jenna) and some of the current ones were just printed off the blogs, so if you guys want to send some photo's Mom's way to have your children represented better go right ahead. Regardless, it did turn out pretty cute and I even left some spaces for the two newest grandbabies coming up.
All your flowers are so pretty! And the roses and lilies-like father like son. :)
I'm glad you had a wonderful Mother's Day and I'm glad Andrew was able to call you. Thanks for being a great mother to a wonderful son!
Amy-did I know about the picture thing? If I did, I completely forgot and I'm so sorry!!
I am so glad to read this on your blog. I have missed reading yours for a long time!! I will be happy to give you pictures of Adrian and Ashley when they were babies, i actually have pictures of them!! When you get here next week I will let you pick which one's you would like to have in the book!!
I love the flowers and I am very blessed to have you as my mother, I know I have told you lot's and lot's but you are the greatest!! Keep up the good work!!
I love you!
Marni,
I actually bought the little book for Christmas and called or e-mailed everyone (including Andrew) to request photos, but when I didn't hear back from anyone I gave up on the idea until just before Mother's Day and by then I knew I wouldn't have time to gather photos from everyone, so I just dug around and used ones that I had or took them from the blogs. No big deal, and like I said, it still turned out cute.
It is definately nice to see a post from you on here.
That was really great of dad to send those flowers. I got a little teary, I dont know why!
I will have to try to find a baby picture of Brody and copy one for you! I thought I sent some of Jenna with you once but if I didnt let me know and will make a copy of one of those too!
Thanks for being such a great mom!
I love you very much and appreciate everything you have done! I miss you and wish I could see you more.
What a beautiful arrangement of flowers! Oh my.
And I'm with Alison -- glad to see you return to the blog!
Dad said that he chose this particular bouquet of flowers for you for two reasons. The first is because it is pink and that would be what Kayleigh would have picked out for you! And the second is because of the cup that it came in, he said it was something that you would be able to keep for a long time as a decoration and it wouldn't be just a vase taking up space waiting for the next time to be used!! Isn't that so sweet of him!! It made me cry a little!
