Mothers Day Weekend
I went home this weekend and was greeted by two new faces. I've met these little girls before. But not like this. Jordan and Melanie. They are the next generation of our family. They held onto one another like grass stuck in between a cows teeth. It is an innocent love that they share. One moment they are battling for attention. The next they're giving piggy-back rides around the house.

I was sad this weekend as I wrote in my previous post. But it was a smile that these two shared that was like ointment for an open wound.

On this mother's day weekend we honored the mother's with a big party with lot's of festivities. My cousin Debi was the leader of this charge. Without one word of trying to take recognition, she really put her all into it. Hats off to her.

But it was the pure joy of having these kids, among so many others around this weekend that made Mother's day so special.
