Best Mother's Day Gift Ever!

This year Tori's Birthday fell on Mother's Day. Sharing Mother's Day with Tori's Birthday this year has made it a little bit more special for me. Above all this Mother's Day I am thankful that I have the opportunity to be a Mom. I know I have a long way to go before I am the kind of Mother that I hope to someday be but I am so thankful to my children who have taught me so much about love and life. I am also thankful for all the Mother's in my life who have influenced me and have set such great examples for me in my life. I hope you all have wonderful Mother's Day!
Back to Tori's Birthday.
It is hard to believe that my little girl is already 3! Tori is such a sweet girl and I love being her Mom. She is always reminding all of us how much she loves us. She is calm, content, and happy (most of the time) and I can honestly say she never really went through a terrible two's stage (though maybe that means we are in for it now that she is 3). She is so smart and so beautiful and such a great sister to Landon and Ella. Happy Birthday Tori, I love you!!

Yesterday I took Tori out to celebrate her birthday. These last two pictures are of Tori enjoying her birthday sundae from Applebee's. That thing was huge!!
