A little bragging....

Reese won the game for us last night, and one excited mama I was. Let me tell ya. I done the jig in the stands. He's had a rough time this year going from a pitching machine to an actual pitcher and getting hit the first game didn't help any. Well last night we were losing 7 to 6 and it was last bat. 2 outs, bases loaded, Reese is up to bat. I have to tell you I was thinking to myself well that's it games over. First pitch he drives it down first base line. I thought it was foul at first but it was a fair ball. All the way to the fence. Runs come in and game is over. WOO HOO! Reese made it to second and was like standing there going what'd I do. LOL. He got the game ball for the night and lots of pats on the back. Hopefully this will build his confidence back up now. And lets just say I left the ballfield one proud mama. But now I'm always proud of my kids just sometimes we get to be a little bit prouder........ WAY TO GO REESE MAN!!!

Mother's Day

Mother's Day was pretty much laid back for me this year. We stayed at the river and I was minus all my children, which I have to say I didn't like but what better than a break for Mother's Day. They all did either text or call and wish me a happy Mother's Day and Kayla, Cal and Riley gave me a precious coffee mug. Mom and Dad gave me the Paula Dean measuring cups and spoons. If you haven't seen these they are precious. I'll try to get a pic of those on here. We went to moms and ate and I slept most of the day. ha. Something about being back home always makes me wanna sleep. Strange. Well Ken says during the day that my Mother's Day will be in tomorrow or Tuesday. Naturally I say oh you didn't have to get me anything. He replied with I didn't, the kids did, and they all have a part of it. Now I'm really wondering what it could be. So Monday and Tuesday pass and nothing. I actually forgot about it all cause Ken was leaving for work Thursday. Nothing else had been said about any of it. Well my daughter comes in this past weekend and says Happy Late Mothers Day. I open this little pink bag and I have the most beautiful, most precious mothers ring. It has all my kids as you can see in the picture. Absolutely the best Mother's Day present I have ever gotten. And who would have ever dreamed that I would have enough children and a grandchild to fill a mothers ring like this. Blessed, truly, simply, blessed...........
