13 Years

Today Milan and I celebrate our 13th Anniversary. It seems like the years just fly by and here we are 13 years and 3 kids later. So much has happened in the 13 years we have been married. We have laughed together and cried together, we have been through tough times and good times, we have lived in 3 different places, traveled to fun places, we have lost loved one and gained new family members, had friends come and go, but we have always had each other. We have learned so much from each other and gained so much from each other. No matter what, he is always there for me and I love him for it. This is us on our wedding day and the other picture is us now. My how we have changed in 13 years. I Love You Mi!

Mothers Day

I love Mothers Day, just for the fact that I get to celebrate being the mother of 3 wonderful children. Motherhood is one of the hardest and greatest jobs ever, but I couldn't imagine not being a mother. I am so blessed to be their mother.

I couldn't have been a good mother without the influence of my own Mom. She is the kind of mom that makes me try harder to be a better mother. I'm sure most of us can say that about our mothers and we all feel biased about our own mothers, but I have the BEST mother! My mom is amazing, she has always been there for me and seen me at my worst and at my best. She has shared in my accomplishments and been there to lift me when I failed. She has shared in my joys and also in my sorrows. My mom loves me no matter what, even when I was a rotten teenager, thats true unconditional love. She is the BEST. Mom I love you and hope your Mothers Day was as amazing as you!

My husband also has a wonderful mother, I am so grateful that she raised such a wonderful man. He is amazing. He grew up with a temper, but you would never know it because he is so patient and kind and I know that its because of his loving mother. She taught him how to be a better person and to be kind to others. Thanks Holly and happy Mothers Day!

To all you mothers who are reading this, you are amazing and your children are so lucky to have you as their mother. Thank you for also being examples to me. I know I have asked for advice over the years from many of you and that is what is so great about women. We are always helping each other become the women we are meant to be. I love you all. Happy Mothers Day!
