The Family that Sings Together.....
Mothers Day was yesterday and it was pretty chill and pretty great! My kids and Hubz and I all sang in sacrament meeting ( Kevin was nervous but tried very hard to learn his part and help the kids sing and never once complained -even though I totaly make him do it- and we all sang pretty well together ( Baby Sloan even helped 'sing' from the pews) and my goal was met - we started and ended together .My Mom and Gramma Great came to watch the kids stood still and didnt fight or fidget during the song ( a real concern of mine). Everyone looked nice and cute( but I did notice in primary that Nash had on blue soccer socks instead of black church socks-beggars cant be choosers).I wore the cool charm necklace my uber talented mother made for me and my sisters for Christmas(it has pics of my kids ,parents wedding ,my wedding ,sister pic and other charms too) and Ava kept askin' who's pic was on each charm and totaly playin' with it while I was singing my little solo part. Oh Well, The show must go on! We trudged through and it was very sweet to do that with my good Hubz and sweet kids. I felt very fortunate to sing with them and to help invite the spirit of motherhood and family to the meeting.Honestly, I am amazed daily at what smart and funny kids they are and greatful for a Hubz that still thinks I am the bees knees . I also need to give a shout out to my wonderful Mother who has always been SuperWoman to me. She has boundless talents, beauty beyond compare and a very generous and kind heart.I hope I can be half as cool as she is one day!Momma Fabulous I Love You!!!

They are amazing kids, but I'm afraid it's genetics. You are fabulous mom, though I don't think you give yourself enough credit.
Wish I could have been there ... maybe next Mother's Day?
sorry i missed it. i'm sure that it was great with the performing gene still going strong with the little giff's. we are very lucky to have a great momma, and i am very lucky to have a great big sis.
I would have came but I was having a little run in with the law at that time.
damn po-pos cant keep the devz down!
That sounds really sweet. I have always thought that there must have been a rush on babies when Heavenly Father created me and because of the chaos He forgot to give me the beautiful singing voice that I clearly should have received. I love to sing and although I sound AMAZING in the shower, for some reason I sound like a dog howling at the moon everywhere else. So everytime I hear a great musical number I swallow the big chunk of envy that tries to get stuck in my throat, sit back and enjoy the show, and hope that maybe in the next life I will be able to switch out my currect voicebox for a new and improved one. I'm glad you had a good mother's day! You should get more than just one per year!
Very kind words from a VERY Kind daughter...My life is sweetly blessed with you and your sisters to love me in spite of my wierdnessess. (you know, the whole ying/yang thing...I may have have a few talents, but my emotional and crazy episodes sort of even everything out, don't you think?!)
I am very sorry to have missed the performance. You and your family are very talented. O.G.
Apparently I am a day late and a dollar short in the commenting on this post. I WAS there and it was more than fab. Made me a little teary if you must know.
So ... do you want a dollar ... 'cause like I said ... I'm short one.
