Mother's Day 2011


 Mother's day is very special to me.  I am a mother to 8 precious children - 2 here and 6 on the other side of the veil.  I am blessed to have my Rachel and Haley with me.  They mean everything to me and bring me so much joy.  I may not have my 6 angels with me now, but I will see them again.  That keeps me going as I miss them very much.  As their mother I think of them often.  I know they are safe, happy and well.  Rachel and Haley have mended my broken heart.  They help me and make me want to be a better mother everyday.  I thank my Heavenly Father for the opportunity to be Rachel and Haley's mother.  I also want to thank and express my love to my mother who provides unconditional love and support.  She is my friend who I can talk to anytime.  I appreciate all that she has done for me and her constant reminder of what a mother is.  Happy Mother's Day!

  3. I have 4 babies here with me (3 were premature) and have had 16 miscarriages at varying times. Mother's Day is bittersweet for me. Being a member of the LDS church has brought and brings so much peace. Happy Mother's Day(a little late) to you! What woderful miracles all of your children are!

  4. I am curious why you say you have 6 babies in heaven-what about the one that was an ectopic pregnancy? Your girls are doing so well and are so cute!
