Its Mothers Day and it has been a wonderful day. The kids all came up to Oakley for a BBQ.
I have some of the best kids in the world.....thanks guys. After everyone left to go home, I started thinking about my Mom..... she will be gone 6 years in September. It seems like just yesterday, I was talking to her about life and asking her for her opinion about my problems.
Sometimes when I look at myself in the mirror, I see her face in mine. I like to think she is ok with how things are going for our family, and looking out for us. She was a wonderful Mother and role model. She taught me to be strong and to stand up for what I believe in. For those of you lucky enough to have known her you know what I am talking about. Dad affectionately called her "Big Thunder" for a reason. I like to think of Abraham Lincolns quote when I think about her and all she taught me.."ALL THAT I AM, OR HOPE TO BE I OWE TO MY ANGEL MOTHER" ..........My hope is I can do the same for my own kids.

oh mom that gave me a tear. Yes I would say that she would be smiling in heaven knowing how well you have done in raising all of us hellions. I miss her too, she was a great grandma too. We all know that i didnt get my middle name just because it sounded good with amanada, it is because we have alot of the same tendencies. haha
love you mom!!
