I missed my oldest Tara but I know she would have rather been here with her mom than at work any day! This is a picture her sweet husband sent to me.

Her and Drew where resting before she had to go to work one evening. What a wonderful mom she is. I'm so proud of her and her hard work that she does for her 4 boys!
Clock wise Alex their cute daddy, Drew, Riley and Kade. PS in the background is little Paxton!
I just answered Derek's phone call from Toronto Canada:P Yes I cried when I heard his voice:0 It's mothers day and I can cry if I want to!
Kiva on speaker phone with her brother and Paxton getting rid of the sock he didn't like. She is such a cute mother to her boy and we are so excited that she will be having our 6th grandson in September! Her husband Lucas, my other wonderful son, was spending time with his family in Tropic. We missed sharing this time with him but are glad he was with his loved ones.
This is Mandy and her newborn son Cooper Roy who is 2 months old. He will be one and a half when uncle Derek gets home and gets to meet Cooper for the first time. It has been so fun having Robert and her living here in our home with David and I. I have really enjoyed watching these young ones begin to raise a young one of their own! I love every moment I get to rock Cooper and discuse the days events! My sweet grandson Riley is also in this picture! He will be 8 when his uncle gets home.
Maybe Derek will have another baptism!
And this is Mandy's Husband and my other wonderful son Robert and his little man Cooper Roy
Even Drew was excited to get a hold of the phone! He will be 2 when uncle Deek comes home!
We were all so excited to get a call from Derek! He is aloud a call at mothers day and one at Christmas so we truly cherished every second he was on the line! He sounded very happy and healthy although grandma asked if he was getting enough to eat and it sounds like he may be loosing a little weight, but I'm pretty sure it's only because he is so busy:P He is loving the work and has had challenges but seems to press forward keeping his head high!
He bore his testimony to us along with Tara on a conference call.
It was truly a most touching moment in my life
to have all my family gathered around me along with my mother.
It is one that I pray I never forget.
I love all of my children and ask God to please bless
each one with love and peace through out their lives!
Thank you kids for such a wonderful day,
Love mom
So happy to hear that your Elder is doing well, and that you had a nice Mother's Day.
