1st mother's day

Montgomery and I were downstate at my moms for mother's day. Montgomery got me a MOM necklace and a happy 1st mothers day card.


Jared, Cara and I made dinner for our mom, Roast, corn on the cob, and garlic toast. Mom opened up her gifts and then I opened my card and gift from my parents: a swing for Montgomery :)

I am so amazed everyday that this little guy made me a mom, It is truly an honor. Everyday is a blessing watching him grow up, hoping I am doing things right. I am his mama and he is my son. Montgomery and I are on this incredible journey through life and we hope you will continue to read our blog and travel through it with us.
