My Birthday Wish

Happy happy birthday mommy dear!  Yep, yesterday was my birthday and it was filled with so much love!  I reflected a lot on Lincoln and what I wanted my birthday wish to be....I know the saying that if you say your wish it won't come true but I am hoping that the more I say it the more chances I have that it will come true. So my birthday wish is to be able to hear Lincoln cry and to hold him tight for as long as possible!

Yesterday we had everyone over for rootbeer floats and I opened presents.  Gayleen and Daniel got me a beautiful picture frame that has a mother and a little boy on it.  It has this quote on it "the love of a mother comes nearer to being like the love of God than any other kind of love." Joseph F. Smith  I love that quote and find it very true. It's amazing how much you can love someone and how much that love can grow!  They also got me a willow tree that is of a little boy and he is holding up a balloon that says 'HOPE'  it will always remind me of Lincoln and to have Hope!  On the box it says,"hope lifts us up!" and it's so true...it really does lift us up when we are down. 

Thanks Daniel and Gayleen for the beautiful present. I felt bad when they gave it to me I just said thanks and moved on. I didn't really want to think about it and the meaning behind it at the time because I didn't want to start crying like a baby! 

Other than getting older things are going good here. I don't go to the doctors for a few more weeks which feels really weird.  My belly is getting SO BIG!!!!  I HOPE that means that Lincoln has grown a lot.  I think I am going to have Monte take a picture of me and my prego belly and put it on here so we can always remember my big belly!  I hardly have any prego pictures of the girls because I refused and now I think it will be fun to have them.  I am getting some professional belly pictures in July and am excited about that!  WEIRD!!!!
