Appreciation

Growing up I never appreciated the the things my mom did for me, day in and day out.  I was a snotty teenager, with a big attidue and had to have what everyone else had! (yes I will admit it)  Now today I have no idea what I would with out my MOM!  I love the person I have become because of her and my dad.  I dont need what the "Jones" have, I dont need to be snotty, I dont need to be mean.  Life is too short!  I am Independent, yet text, email or call my mom 10 x's a day! ha She does SO much for me, my brother & his family there is no way to repay her.  Just yesterday I had a horrible day at work....all I wanted to do was crack open a beer, drink a glass a wine and relax!!! Nope I had chores to do that had to get get, I mowed the yard, cleaned the house and put loads and loads of laundry away.  I can't EVEN image doing that with 2 kids running around and going to 10 different sporting events/activities like my mom did with my brother and I. She can get things done and get them done quick!  She always is 10 steps ahead of me and laughs when I am laying around on a Sunday taking a nap.  Nap is not in Mom Barb's vocabulary! ha  Thank you Mom for always being there for me and sorry I was so mean to you!!! ha I love you!

***Wedding update:  we booked our DJ today!  Who is ready to put their hands in the air and shake their booty?!??! I am!!!  I already have my dancing shoes ready :)

I get to see this sweet boy tomorrow and I can NOT wait!!!!!! He calls me a couple times a week on the phone or skype and is talking up a storm.....I can't wait to sit and listen to all his stories and of course give him a GIANT hug & kiss!
Thank you to Ryan's parent's, my mom and family for helping with Ryan & I's wedding!  We love you all sooooo much and couldn't do it with out you! 

Love,
Emily
