My Loving Mother

My mom came to help with the new baby. Originally she was coming so Don wouldn't have to take off so many days from work. It certainly didn't work that way! Don decided to take off those days for a break for him also! LOL!

It was so nice to have her come and help. Leslie really enjoyed having her here. She got to go on long walks with grandma and she got lots of individual attention from her. This helped me be able to rest and not worry about anything. I didn't have to think about getting kids up, breakfast, entertainment for Leslie, lunch, school work, kids chores, dinner, and cleanup. Man listing those things makes me wish she could come back!

But because of her I got to focus on just this little guy and myself. Which was very nice.My mom doesn't want to smile big because she is worried about wrinkles.
But those wrinkles are symbols of time spend bettering oneself in love and service to others. And I think she looks beautiful with her real smile anyway!
