Mommy Moment!

Today we went to put a wreath on my mom's gravestone. Its so weird that she was here with us last Christmas but won't be with us this year or anymore to come. I'm so greatful for three little children who will keep me so busy that I won't have too much time to be sad. Here are some Christmas memories I have of my Mom:

Singing Christmas songs while mom played the guitar or the onmnicord

Mom telling me to calm down and relax over a 100 times because I was so giddy with excitement and literally squeeling every 2 minutes

Mom in her slippers and house coat Christmas morning

Waking up Christmas morning to Grandma Fraser and Mom having tea.

After opening our stockings Mom would make us eat breakfast before we got to open presents.

Mom opening her first ever computer for our home. She was so surprised and excited!

Mom forgetting to label the presents one year and Cody opened my Dad's razor instead of his gameboy! Not sure who was more shocked...my mom or Cody!

Santa bags!

She always made the holidays exciting and meaningful! Merry Christmas Mom!







P.S My siblings and our family's usually go to my Dad's house for Sunday dinner. Tonight when we were all sitting at the table eating Nate says "I think there's someone missing" we all looked around but everyone was there, and then Nate said "I think its Grandma Kim". It was so sweet. He doesn't talk about her much anymore so it was pretty special!
