Mommy/Honey,
Tomorrow is Mother's Day and I want you to know how much you mean to the kids and me.
Chloe wants to thank you for the organic milk she drinks every 4 hours (she says it's always fresh), the opportunity to eat big people food so early in her life, all the Arabic nicknames you call her, the way you make her laugh, cleaning up all of her blowouts(and yes, she is aware she has more than the average girl) and just loving on her. She loves you sooooo much and is looking forward to learning more and more things from mommy.
Noah wanted you to know that you're "DA BES"! He wanted to thank you for always listening to him even though his topics of conversation center around lawnmowers, airplanes, tractors, lawnmowers, Cole, diggers, and even more lawnmowers. He is grateful that you pray for him when he gets a booboo. He loves all the yummy food you make, especially when you douse it with yogurt. He has fond memories of watching "Diggers Live" up in Arora Hills, you reading him books and teaching him colors, shapes, numbers and all sorts of other fun things. He is grateful that he gets to see mommy everyday and that you have given him a sister to play with. He loves you so much and one days hopes to marry a woman just like you.
So I've said it before and I'll say it again...you AMAZE me. I can't imagine life without you. Thank you for sacrificing your professional career and taking on an even more challenging career as a homemaker. I finally figured out why you're so tired these days. It's because you're nursing, cleaning, changing diapers, cooking, washing clothes, running errands, meal planning, playing with kids, doctors visits, romancing me and about
100+ other things. Thank you for ALL that you do, especially the things that I'm probably not even aware of.
I also wanted to thank you for the way that you have reminded me lately of where our true home is. Matthew 6 says:
“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
You have provoked me to think more about our Savior and less about the "stuff" of this world. As my helpmate, that's one of the best things you can do for me, and the kiddos. I love you baby and pray that you realize how much the kids and I love and appreciate you.
Love,
danny, noah and chloe
