Happy Mothers Day

I have so much I wanna say but I don't know how to put into words. This weekend is Mother's Day. Just like last year, I did the Susan G Komen 5K Race for the Cure. It is AMAZING to do this! This year I didn't make it on time for our team photo but that's ok, a lot of people didn't. Parking is awful downtown! They estimated over 17,000 people who did the race. I felt like I was at the end of the group but I looked back and realized I had to of been in the middle. The "race" started at 8:30 and we got done at about 9:45. Not bad!! There were TONS of "survivors" who walked this year, some were walking with family and some were walking alone. I saw this little white haired man (had to be around 70) walking and on his back was a sign that said "I race for my wife". I just get chills and tears just thinking of all the people affected (guess it hits a little home)

I can't even express all my love and gratitude for my own mom at this time! I know this week I gave her a hard time because it was her birthday (but hey, the older I get the older she gets :)). My mom is an AMAZING lady. I know she doesn't really like Mother's Day but mom, appreciate it! I thought of you the whole time walking today. I was walking for you, your sisters, grandma Nell.. and all of the Olsen girls. Just hoping, we don't have to go through it... AGAIN... Mom, thank you for being so supportive of me, my brother and my sisters. I know you don't always like our choices, but I know that you will always love me and be there for me with open arms. I hope you had a great time in Park City and had a great birthday! I love you mom!

To my sisters and sister in law: I know I may not be the happiest person in the world :) but I am so thankful for you. I love my neices and nephews so much. I'm so glad that this week I got the biggest surprise and that was to get to see the newest member of the family, Baby Isaac. I love hearing my neices and nephews tell me they love me and give me the biggest hugs (or Morgan being stingy with her hugs).Thanks for letting me call you at any time and letting me vent. I know Tammy gets texts all the time, even if it is just to find Lexi! :) I love when the kids call me just to say hi, my favorite of all is knowing that Tyler is able to talk now and he wants to talk on the phone. Nancy will call just so he can call. The other day, he was playing with the phone and called me on accident and I had to tell him to give the phone to his mom, I think it took Nancy by surprise! :) I love you guys and I know I don't tell you enough.

To my ALL my family (don't know if ANY of them read this): Thank you for being you. You are all supportive to my family.

Again, I just want to tell the ladies close to me, mothers or not, that you are all great.

Last year I made vinyl signs for my sisters that said "The Greatest Accomplishment in life call me MOM" The vinyl I made for my mom and my Aunt Linda said "Even if I don't hug you everyday, Remember that I will always Love you"

I'm being honest, I didn't get any cards or anything out to anyone this year. I will call you guys tomorrow, sorry that's all I have. It is getting harder and harder on me not having kids when things like this come around. I want kids and I want to celebrate it as a MOTHER not just as an AUNT.

Happy Mothers Day to every Mother in my life! I love you all and I hope you all get taken care of!
