Happy Mother’s Day

A little blast from the past.  The day I became a mother for the third time.  They are so little!

I was a nervous wreck taking this picture.  You can imagine…being in the hospital and your two little {wild} boys show up running around being loud.  They were overly excited to meet their new little sister, Kate Cannonball.*  They sat with her for this shot but flopped her around and maybe pushed her over once.  They loved to jam that pacifier in her mouth and like every younger sibling, Kate didn’t mind one bit.  Anyway, I made it through without a Valium (somehow) and boy am I glad I have this picture now.

* I really did almost legally name her Kate Canon.  Not for my Canon camera, of course, but because that was just her name.  Still is.  She was given a pirate name by her brothers and it kind of stuck.

And lastly, Happy Mother’s Day to my Mom!

This is my Mother before she went to Mary Kay’s Career Conference this year in Atlanta.  Kate checks out her pins.  She is used to seeing her Grammy in Auburn T-shirts and not sure what all this bling is.  I have lost track but I think my Mother just celebrated 38 years with Mary Kay (I may be corrected on that).  What an accomplishment to stick with anything for that long.

Happy Mother’s Day to you all too!
