One of THOSE days...

Well I have been meaning to get on here for the last couple weeks to add some pictures from my cousin Andrea's wedding but you know how time just seems to slip away when you get busy. Anyway I am having a day where if Brian doesn't get home from work soon and rescue me I may just murder our child!! Well I WAS having one of those days until I put Jordyn down for her nap and decided to once and for all sit down and update our blog... I decided to read through the recent blogs of my rad people and was quickly humbled right out of my mommy murder mood. I have a very dear friend who is going through some terrifying and unknown things with her new baby girl. Her little one, Lilah stops breathing occasionally while sleeping and they are no closer to knowing for sure what is wrong then they are when it started happening a few weeks ago. I can't even imagine what she and her husband must be going through!! I am amazed she can still function, I'm pretty sure I would be a raving lunatic. Anyway it got me thinking about why Jordyn drives me sooooooo crazy somedays, it's because she is a smart, funny little girl who has the ability to make anyone anywhere her slave... shouldn't I be thrilled? I have a gifted child who just happens to also be the cutest kid in the world, shouldn't I be counting my blessing instead of wishing to kill her? As I said earlier it was a very humbling experience to sit back and ask myself which would you rather be dealing with... not even really a question right? So as I sit her mellowing out on this Mother's Day eve thinking about all these things I feel I need express that I am beyond thankful for the blessing of Jordyn in my life, even all the terrible two things that are happening right now. I also am very grateful to have the BEST mom in the world!! I really do, she is everything I want to be for Jordyn and Brian and everyone else in my life because she is one of those just about perfect people that only come along like every hundred years or so... She'll be so mad I wrote that hehe!! As if that weren't enough I also have a fabulous mother-in-law, Paula who's charity and kindness know no bounds and who am also very thankful for. Oh and let's not forget that I also have the 2 greatest grandma's in the world!! Both my Grandma Minson and my Grandma Pollei (Grams) are such an example of strength and love and also pretty darn fun to be around!! With all these great women, plus the amazing aunts, sister-in-laws, cousins and friends I have I feel like I am the luckiest girl ever! How can I fail with all that greatness around me? So Happy Mother's Day to the all you spectacular women in my life and most especially to my very loved mommy!!
