Tues & Wed.& Thurs. Thanks!!

The finished product!! Nothing amazing, I know but it was important to me!!
I was SO mad at Erick for taking this photo. He thought the whole thing was so so funny, and told me that someday I would be happy he took this picture, he was right...but don't tell him I said that!!

My Momma and Daddy!!!

Soooo I did not get online on Tues. or Wed. So it is now Thurs and I have a lot of catching up to do!!
I am going to do this one a little different....I am going to write about one big thing that I am so thankful for!
I am thankful for my Momma!!! My Mother is such an amazing person. One of my most favorite memories of her is when we were little and in bed. Sometimes she would go to the piano and start playing music. Which ever of us kids heard her first would get the rest and we would take our blankies and pillows and go lay on the floor in what we called the Piano room and listen to her play and fall asleep. My poor Dad would then carry us all to our beds. It was a special time for our whole family. I can also remember my Dad sitting on the couch or in the rocking chair just smiling and enjoying my Mothers music as well.
Another favorite for me is on Derick's 1st birthday. I was so excited that my first baby was turning 1. It is kind of a huge milestone, so I wanted everything to be perfect! We were having a huge party. So I was making the cakes and I read the recipe wrong and the cakes totally burnt and overflowed in the oven. To say I was destraught would be a huge understatement. So what do I do first??? Call my Mom!! She told me to relax and that all would be ok. I then heard her hollar to my Dad "Honey does your plane have fuel?" She then returned to me and said "honey don't you worry about a thing. I have already started getting everything out to make you a cake, Daddy is going to get his airplane ready and we will be there with the cake in an hour and a half. That will give you enough time to still decorate them right?" Seriously who does that??? My Mom does!!! (Not to short change my Dad he is amazing too but this is not about him!! ;) I will to his post another time!)
I have NEVER in my life questioned my Moms love for me. She has been there for me through everything in my life. She never misses a beat when it comes to her children or anyone that she loves for that matter. Actually she would do anything for anyone that I love even if she does not know them!! No LIE!! My Mom is one of the most selfless people I know. She gives of herself fully to others and to the Lord. I am thankful that Emily Lynette Wright is my Mother! My prayer is that one day my children will feel as loved and devoted to by me, as I do my Momma!!

I agree. Your mom is surely something to be thankful for. If only we could all be like "Mama Joe" to our kids :)

So...we might be moving back to the valley for a while. :( I know you will be happy!

I love your Momma too!! She is so great! Your Dad is pretty awesome too!

After seeing your cakes...yes the tree skirt was hard! Just kidding! It was pretty easy, I could help you. We are probably moving back to the valley, or maybe just Brandon for a while...who knows. Buy about 1/4 yard of 5 or six different fabrics after Christmas when they are on sale and I will make it! Love you and miss you!

Sniff sniff, She IS awesome! I confer with Lisa! Honestly, I can't help but feel a little jealous of your wonderful parents and the closeness you have. You Are so blessed! I'm so glad we came into each others lives! It has been such a blessing to have you and your family in my family's life. The first time I saw you, Erick and Derick is a very vivid memory. Thanks.
