Mother's Day Eve

It's not yet officially Mother's Day, but I already feel s.p.o.i.l.e.d.


Aaron wined and dined me two nights in a row with dates..
(3 nights if you include free KFC meals :)

Ben has showered me with several of his famous homemade cards.

Luke picked me flowers from someone else's beautiful yard and gave me a foot rub.

Zack has slobbered me with a million boogery kisses.

And if that wasn't enough, my favorite gift so far has been heaven sent.

A new baby is scheduled to join our family in November.

I could not be happier or feel more blessed.

    oh Janet, that is so exciting. It brought on some tears. I know you guys have been wanting another baby (hopefully it will be a girl this time, although, your boys are pretty spectacular) and have been trying for so long.
