Happy Mother's Day!

To my best friends I say HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! What in the world would my children do without you. Jenny, from the day our boys were in second grade your home has been a home-away-from-home for Randall. We always said we were sending him to Camp Smith. He experienced great wonders there. He learned that mountains and fences could be climbed with the leadership of a true friend. Nothing to fear but lots to laugh about. Randall and Levi figured it out as they went. Not always the best way but the most fun way. And Emily, found a forever friend in Lacey. Lacey taught her that bossing Cody was not only their duty but their God given right. Poor Cody. To this day Emily cherishes her time in your home.

Andi, you have done so much for my children. They love meals at your home and the fun you allow them to have. Riding horses or mules, playing pool, playing rook, and swimming. Emily and Ansley have giggled, laughed, and cried over everything from bodily functions to muddin' in the pasture, and the heartbreak that boys cause. Some of the best times ever were the "locusts" nights with rook games going on and Randall and Levi being challenged by Sam, Randy, and Keith.

We have a wonderful life. Our friends have seen to that. The time at St. George Island. Cody being part of the Yoo-Hoo Tribe. A deserted beach reserved just for us. More Rook. Jigsaw puzzles. Madeia - "Lock it down, Clink, Clink". Homemade Ice Cream on Sunday afternoons and the sound of the kids coming home after a movie. Ready to eat more, of anything.

So to you two ladies, have the best of days. Put your feet up. Let your hair down. Enjoy the day with your families. I love you.
