What's not to love about the month of May? I, personally, believe it to be the very best of all the months... now, granted, there are a lot of great months that make up a year, but... I happen to love the month of May. Why? you ask... Let me tell you.
#1 Mothers. I have been blessed with a wonderful mother. She's amazing. I have a very special Grandma who is very close to my heart... and the memories of my other Grandma are cherished treasures. I have also been blessed to two mothers-in-law who I have learned so much from. I love all of them. I love the fact that after many years and hundreds of unanswered prayers, I have the opportunity to be a mother to 3 of the most beautiful, amazing, funny, happy children on earth. I am so blessed and so honored.
#2 Birthdays! Next to the month of July- May has 
the most birthdays for our family! Plus- It's my birthday! Who doesn't love their birthday? I love my birthday. This year, my wonderful and amazing husband happened to give me an awesome new camera, along with some photography classes! How great is that? Remember my previous post about creativity and hidden talents? Well, I'm going to dive in deep and see what I can accomplish! Ü Also, we went to a boutique and I found a wonderful new watch. I'm kinda particular when it comes to watches, but we found a wonderful watch that has interchangeable bands. Handmade with all kinds of cool beads, stones and gems. LOVE IT!

One of my most favorite things I have are my lilac bushes. These bushes were starts off of my late Grandpa Nielsen's lilac bushes. They are the most beautiful, fragrant lilacs I have ever seen or smelled. My pictures, unfortunately, don't do them much justice. (see photo at top of post)
#4 Spring planting. This weekend John was out of town at a seminar, so the kids and I went over to my parents to help plant their garden. We had a blast! The sun was hot and their was a happiness in the air. We had such a great time!
So, I didn't mean for this post to become a novel... but it's been awhile and I have a lot to be grateful for during this wonderful month of May!
